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.
