Misdemeanor crimes are punishable for up to one (1) year imprisonment and up to $1,000.00 fine, whereas a felony crime is punishable by more than one (1) year imprisonment and more than $1,000.00 fine.

"I highly recommend Attorney Humphrey to any military personnel or veterans charged with any type of criminal offense."I was charged by the Warwick Police with DUI and Refusal. As active duty military, I was well aware that these charges could have an adverse impact on my career. Fortunately, I was referred to Robert H. Humphrey, Esq. Based on his knowledge of the law and his experience handling drunk driving and refusal cases, I was able to have both the DUI charge and Refusal charge successfully resolved by a referral to the Veterans Diversion Program. I highly recommend Attorney Humphrey to any military personnel or veterans charged with any type of criminal offense.- BB

"I tell all my friends who get injured to give Bob a call."After being injured in an automobile accident, I was afraid my injuries would result in the loss of my job I had for the past 21 years. Even after returning to my job, the pain from the injuries I sustained in the accident often forced me to leave my job early because the pain was too great to complete a full day of work. From the time I met with Bob until the close of my case he was always available for me. I tell all my friends who get injured to give Bob a call.- M.R.

"My family and I were overjoyed with the outcome!!"When arrested for DUI and Refusal, I was immediately afraid how a criminal conviction would affect my immigration status. Attorney Humphrey skillfully negotiated with the Town and got the DUI dismissed. He then used his considerable talents to prepare for a Refusal trial. Immediately before trial, the case was dismissed. I cannot emphasize the weight that was lifted off my shoulders. My family and I were overjoyed with the outcome!! Thank you again for all of your hard work.- Zaheer

"I would highly recommend him to friends and family."After being involved in a multi-car accident on 195 in Providence, I tried going it alone with the insurance companies. Fortunately, a family member who Attorney Humphrey had represented in the past referred me to him. Attorney Humphrey and Attorney Petta were with me every step of the way, he negotiated with the other drivers' insurance companies and my insurance company. He even convinced my medical providers to reduce their liens so I got the maximum amount possible as a settlement. I would highly recommend him to friends and family.- Emily

"Robert Humphrey, Esq., is the best Rhode Island attorney to call"My family and I were greatly concerned when I was charged with a crime after an automobile accident.

He was able to quickly resolve the case so I did not receive a criminal conviction. I am going to tell all of my college classmates that if you get in trouble, Robert Humphrey, Esq., is the best Rhode Island attorney to call.- Karl

"We could not be more pleased with the end result."My son and I want to thank you and Attorney Petta, for the successful resolution of our matter. When he called from school and told me about the alcohol possession charge, I knew we needed to seek legal representation. As we are not from the Bristol area, and not familiar with local laws, we really did not know where to begin. I was fortunate to come upon your website, and it was clear your office was experienced with cases far more serious than his. I was surprised to reach you in person when I called for a consultation, and you quickly put me at ease after discussing the situation. We could not be more pleased with the end result.- Paul
