Defending Against Misdemeanor Charges
A strong defense is essential to minimizing the impact of a misdemeanor charge. Our firm employs various defense strategies depending on the circumstances of your case, including:
- Challenging the Evidence – Were your rights violated during the arrest? Was there illegal search and seizure?
- Negotiating Reduced Charges or Dismissals – Many misdemeanor cases can be resolved through plea deals, diversion programs, or case dismissals.
- Arguing Lack of Intent or Self-Defense – Some charges, such as assault, may be reduced or dismissed if self-defense can be proven.
- Expungement & Record Sealing – In certain cases, misdemeanor charges can be expunged or sealed to protect your future opportunities.
