Police officers and prosecutors often pressure defendants into thinking they have no choice but to plead guilty and/or cooperate. Far too many people take bad plea deals or hurt themselves in other ways. No matter what crime is involved, remember that you have a constitutional right to effective assistance of counsel. You deserve to have the case examined by an experienced lawyer experienced lawyer who can evaluate the government’s case and find the strong defenses available.

Whether you’re charged with a misdemeanor or a felony, you are facing fines and potential jail time. In brief:

  • Felonies — These crimes range in degree from Class 1 (the most serious) to Class 6 (the least serious). Class 1 felonies, such as murder, carry penalties up to life imprisonment or the death penalty. Class 6 felonies carry prison sentences up to two years.
  • Misdemeanors — These offenses fall into three categories. Class 3 (the least serious) carries a maximum jail term of 30 days. Class 2 has a maximum sentence of four months in jail.  A Class 1 misdemeanor conviction means up to six months in jail.

Some crimes that are initially charged as felonies may be reduced to misdemeanors based on skillful defense arguments raising compelling evidence and mitigating factors. In addition, an attorney can present good grounds for significant reductions in sentencing.
