DO I NEED TO RETAIN AN ATTORNEY TO DEFEND ME IF CHARGED WITH A CRIMINAL OFFENSE?
Yes. I would recommend it. It is not the amount of the fine that matters, money is fungible. A criminal record is an indelible mark that may take up to five (5) years to expunge. A criminal conviction can preclude your eligibility to secure employment as a school teach or government official. You may be required to forfeit your government position. You may be denied a license to practice by a professional licensing board. If you are not a United States citizen, you may be deported.
During my thirty (30) years of defending clients charged with criminal offenses I have helped many avoid criminal record, avoid jail time, avoid maximum fines, avoid driver’s license suspension.
If you or your child have been charged with any of these criminal disorderly persons offenses, I can help.
Please contact me for your free initial consultation and a no nonsense discussion of how I can help you if retained.
