Understanding the Difference Between Felony and Misdemeanor Charges
Conviction on a felony crime could possibly result in a prison commitment while misdemeanor crimes are punishable by jail, fines and probation.
Theft and property crimes result in felony charges when:
- The stolen property or damage is worth more than $400
- The offender has previous convictions
- Violence occurs
- The crime was part of a conspiracy
- The crime is believed to be gang related
Whether you are facing felony or misdemeanor charges, I will work aggressively to keep your record clean. If you have previously been convicted of a felony or misdemeanor I can assist you in pursuing an expungement. Contact me to discuss your case in a free initial consultation. I offer flexible scheduling.
