Misdemeanor Charges Can Bring Serious Results

“But it’s only a misdemeanor” is something we hear all too often from our clients. Don’t make the mistake of thinking it’s just a blip on your personal radar. If the court convicts you of a misdemeanor, it will show up on background checks. That means you might be denied a job, lose security clearance, or lose the chance to receive aid from certain state and federal government programs. Even worse, you could go to jail. That doesn’t have to happen if you get the proper legal representation.


Misdemeanors are less serious and often minor offenses that face up to one year in county jail. There are three classes of misdemeanors.


  • Class A Misdemeanors: Up to one year in county jail and up to $5,000 in fines
  • Class B Misdemeanors: Up to 180 days in county jail and up to $1,000 in fines
  • Class C Misdemeanors: Up to 60 days in county jail and up to $500 in fines



Common misdemeanors include driving under the influence, possession of marijuana, public intoxication, and disorderly conduct.
