Hamden Criminal Defense Lawyer
Righting for Those Facing Criminal Charges
The American criminal justice system is designed to assume everyone is innocent until proven guilty, and as a result, everyone has the right to a fair trial where they can face their accuser directly. This way those facing accusations are given a chance to protect themselves and their innocence. There’s a good reason for this: being found guilty of a criminal offense can carry serious consequences, including jail sentences, large fines, a permanent criminal record, and more.

Infraction, Misdemeanor, or Felony?
All criminal charges are classified into one of three categories. Infractions are the least severe and are generally punishable by no more than a fine. The most common infractions include traffic tickets. While these might have some temporary consequences on your insurance premiums, generally you won’t suffer from any lasting impact if you’re convicted of one of these crimes.
Misdemeanor charges are significantly more serious than infractions. Generally, misdemeanor charges carry consequences including a fine and many of them could also carry jail time, with the maximum for most being up to a year, plus the possibility of probation. However, a misdemeanor conviction will appear on your criminal record and can have further lasting consequences as a result.
Felony charges are the most serious charges and thus carry the heaviest penalties. A felony conviction will not only carry multiple years in prison but also large fines and even other added consequences. Convicted felons also lose a number of rights, and will face difficulties finding things like housing, loans, and even employment.
With so much at stake, you can’t afford to answer to your charges alone; contact our Hamden criminal defense lawyers now!
