Shoplifting charges are serious.  Even if you avoid jail time, a shoplifting conviction can make it difficult or impossible to find a good job.  Most major retailers have sophisticated video systems.  Over 75% of my shoplifting clients were caught on video.

Felony Charges In Henry County

People charged with major felonies (murder, armed robbery, drug trafficking, child molestation) risk long prison sentences.  Many of these crimes carry mandatory minimums if convicted.  Murder carries a mandatory life sentence.  Armed robbery carries a mandatory sentence of 10 years without parole.  The goal in defending these cases is clear: avoid a conviction in order to avoid a crushing prison sentence.

Will This Be On My Criminal History?

Will This Be On My Criminal History?

Almost every client asks this question. Unfortunately, many attorneys either don’t know the full answer to this question or don’t explain it to their clients. The answer is a bit complicated, but is important to understand.

When a first offender is arrested, first class legal representation aims to minimize the paper trail created by the arrest. This requires early action and even early action does not guarantee a happy outcome.
