A felony is the most severe criminal charge and it carries the maximum punishment under the law. The punishment for a felony conviction is extremely harsh and may result in a state prison sentence.
A criminal conviction may also result in other adverse consequences, thus impinging on your professional and personal life. For instance, a felony conviction can have a profound effect on your ability to obtain or keep a professional license. It can cause great difficulty in maintaining employment or in obtaining future employment. A felony conviction can result in adverse educational consequences. It can also result in the loss of the right to posess firearms and in the deportation of non-citizens. Thus, it is vitally important to anticipate all possible consequences of a felony conviction and to minimize such or obtain a dismissal of the charges.
Because of the severity of the offense, a felony demands the attention of an experienced criminal defense attorney at the earliest possible opportunity. If you have been accused of a crime, you need an attorney to represent you from the moment you are charged through pleading and/ or trial.
