Misdemeanor offenses can carry jail time of up to 1 year, extensive fines and probation. Furthermore, a misdemeanor conviction can create a permanent criminal record and interfere with a person’s ability to find employment.
A person charged with a misdemeanor offense should consult an attorney before making any decisions. Selecting an attorney is often a difficult process. Be sure to discuss with whomever you choose, any and all viable defenses. Should fighting your case at trial not be the best option, talk to your attorney about the possibility of an alternative sentence, such as community service, electronic home monitoring or work furlough. A plea bargain can often be negotiated to reduce fines or allow for an extended payment period.
