Misdemeanor Defense Attorneys in Gainesville
Relentlessly Protecting Your Rights & Fighting for Your Freedom
When you are charged with a criminal offense, it will generally either be a misdemeanor or a felony. While misdemeanor offenses are less serious and punished less harshly than felonies, they still carry far-reaching and long-lasting consequences.
A conviction for a misdemeanor offense means that you could face:
- Probation
- Exorbitant fines
- Extensive jail time
- Revoked driver’s license
- Mandatory educational classes
In addition, a conviction will appear on your criminal record and notify any individuals who conduct a background check on you. This may deter universities from accepting you, lenders from giving you loans, property owners from letting you purchase a home, and even employers from giving you a job. This is why it is of the utmost importance that you aggressively fight any and all misdemeanor charges levied against you.

When I was first looking to hire an attorney, I made contact with Dunham and Ingram first. They gave me great advice on my phone consultation and encouraged me to shop around and interview several firms and individuals. I went with my gut and the firm that gave me the best feeling and chose to hire Andy Ingram as my attorney. What I soon discovered is that Andy Ingram is amazing. I hired him to represent me in my case and was amazed with his results. Mr. Ingram worked on my case and kept me fully abreast of every development, the strategies for fighting my case and took the time to explain to me what everything meant. He was very mindful of my wallet and made the effort to exercise fiscal responsibility and not just see dollar signs. If you have a criminal case then I would encourage you to seek the guidance and expertise of Mr. Ingram. You will not be sorry that you did, if there is a positive that can come from your situation, he will find it and achieve it.Former Client

Divorce can be a tramatic experience for most people.Leading up to and during the experience a person feels many emotions such as sadness,loss betrayal and anger.I was feeling all of the afore mentioned feelings and more.In my search for an attorney I wanted someone who was tough and yet fair Someone suggested that I try Chris Dunham During my first meeting with him I knew Chris was who I was looking for.Chris led me through some tough times with a totally non uncooperative ex. I must say that his experience paid off I would highly recommend Chris and his staff at Dunham and Ingram I want to personally thank everyonr at his firm for making a terrible situation bearable Joe RaimoJoe R.
