Minneapolis Gross Misdemeanor Lawyer
In Minnesota, a felony is a serious offense such as assault or battery, domestic violence, murder, rape, kidnapping, some sexual offenses, and other violent crimes. A felony is punishable by at least 1 year in jail.
A gross misdemeanor is a less serious crime in Minnesota with jail time of less than one year and fines of up to $3,000. Being convicted of a gross misdemeanor can have devastating effects on the life of the accused. A gross misdemeanor is a serious offense and written in stone on your criminal record available to future employers and landlords who perform background checks. Gross misdemeanors also are often increased to felony level during the legal process. A gross misdemeanor lawyer can represent you in a court of law and have your charges dropped or reduced.
Simply because gross misdemeanor and misdemeanor crimes appear less severe than a violent or aggressive crime - that does not mean that you shouldn’t hire a gross misdemeanor lawyer.
