Brooklyn Criminal Attorneys to Fight Your Misdemeanor

Misdemeanor attorney in BrooklynMisdemeanors are generally defined as criminal offenses for which you’ll spend less than a year in jail. They are typically considered to be more minor crimes, and the consequences are not as severe as felony offenses.

But, while misdemeanors aren’t as serious as felonies, this does not mean that being accused of a misdemeanor is not something that you have to worry about.

A misdemeanor could still lead to incarceration, or to other penalties such as being forced to make restitution to victims, to do community service, to lose your driver’s license, or to go on probation and have your activities restricted. And, when you have a misdemeanor offense on your criminal record, this can also affect your future when the crime shows up on background checks that you undergo.

The good news is, you can get help defending against a misdemeanor charge and you do not necessarily have to accept conviction as a foregone conclusion. A Brooklyn criminal defense attorney at Bukh Law can provide you with the help and the support that you need as you fight serious charges against you when you have been accused of a misdemeanor.

You should call today to talk with a misdemeanor defense lawyer in Brooklyn NY if you have been accused of committing a misdemeanor offense or if you have actually been charged with a misdemeanor crime.

What is a Misdemeanor?

There are lots of different kinds of misdemeanor charges that you could be accused of committing. Some of the most common examples of misdemeanor charges include offenses such as:

  • Drug crimes
  • Assault and battery
  • Domestic violence offenses
  • Shoplifting
  • Drunk driving and reckless driving
  • Driving without a license or driving without insurance

These are just a few of many examples of crimes that are classified as misdemeanors. The definition of each offense is set by the laws of the state of New York, as are the potential penalties that you could face in the event that you have been accused of a misdemeanor offense.

When you have been accused of a misdemeanor, you have legal rights. You have the right to know what you have been accused of and to understand the possible consequences associated with conviction of the offense. And you have the right to remain silent and to have an attorney present if the police question you for the misdemeanor offense.

What Are Your Options After You’re Charged with a Misdemeanor

When you’re charged with a misdemeanor, you will have a few options for how to respond. You could plead guilty and try to get a lesser penalty or a reduced charge. Or, you could plead not guilty and either try to get the charges dropped due to lack of evidence or attempt to prevail in a criminal trial.

The right course of action will depend specifically upon what evidence the prosecutor has against you, what kind of plea deal your attorney could help you to get, and what defenses you could potentially raise.

This will vary by charge and based on the specifics of your situation. For example, in an assault and battery case, you could argue insufficient evidence or you could assert that you acted in self defense or in defense of others.

Choosing a legal strategy can be complicated, which is why calling Bukh Law for help is a smart choice when you’ve been accused of a misdemeanor offense.
