If you, a friend, or a family member, has been charged with a crime, you may not realize how serious your situation is. Every criminal prosecution is serious, even if the offense is a traffic offense or a misdemeanor. So-called "minor" offenses can carry substantial fines or jail time - and the consequences don't stop there. A traffic offense could make it extremely difficult for you to obtain motor vehicle insurance, except at a dramatically higher premium. A misdemeanor conviction could cause problems when you are looking for a job.

Felonies have even more severe consequences, including long jail sentences and loss of civil rights. Even if a convicted person manages to avoid being sent to jail for any length of time, there is the likelihood that he or she will be placed on probation and be under close supervision. The other consequences of a felony conviction can include the loss of voting rights or the loss of a professional license. In short, a criminal charge is something that cannot be taken lightly.
