What is the Difference Between a Misdemeanor and Felony Crime?

The main difference between these two criminal offenses will be the severity of the penalties. 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. If you have been charged with a misdemeanor or felony crime, be sure to contact a hard-hitting criminal lawyer without delay.

    "As a professional, I knew I could not have a criminal conviction on my record."
    As a professional, I knew I could not have a criminal conviction on my record. When I was arrested for DUI, I feared I would lose my livelihood. As a result of Attorney Humphrey's excellent reputation and experience handling DUI cases, I avoided a criminal conviction. I was very satisfied with the outcome of my case and would recommend his firm to anyone arrested for DUI.

    "I would recommend his services to anyone!"
    I was on probation when I was arrested by the Middletown police for drunk driving. I knew I needed a great attorney if I wanted to avoid jail. I found Attorney Humphrey and met him at his office. He listened to me and helped alleviate my concerns. He used his considerable skills to keep me out of jail. For anyone charged with a probation violation, you should hire Attorney Humphrey. I have already referred another case to him and I would recommend his services to anyone!

    "If you are charged with drunk driving, don't give up hope."
    When I was charged with drunk driving, I was on the fence about contacting a lawyer because I assumed there was nothing anyone could do for me. As a pilot, I was anticipating that my career was over. It was very fortunate that I contacted Attorney Humphrey because he had the drunk driving charge dismissed. A clean criminal record allows me to continue with my career. If you are charged with drunk driving, don't give up hope. Instead, contact Robert H. Humphrey, Esq.

    "If you need a DUI defense attorney, you should call Robert H. Humphrey"
    I was involved in a serious motor vehicle accident involving a telephone pole. Fortunately, Attorney Humphrey was able to quickly settle my case by getting the DUI charge dismissed. Most importantly, I did not sustain a criminal conviction which would have been a problem for my career. If you need a DUI defense attorney, you should call Robert H. Humphrey, Esq.

    "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.

    "Thank you for the wonderful way you handled my Westerly DUI case."
    Thank you for the wonderful way you handled my Westerly DUI case. I was very scared when I was charged with a DUI with readings over .15. However, I knew you were the right man for the job when you picked up the phone on a Sunday and put my mind at ease. Thank you so much for everything you did for me!
