Many people who are charged with a crime feel fortunate if they are able to plead guilty to a misdemeanor offense that results in no jail time. However, there are collateral consequences when you plead guilty to any crime. Pleading guilty to any misdemeanor or felony offense will result in a permanent criminal record. This record can be seen by anyone who conducts a background check, such as employers, landlords, banks and others.

Since a criminal record lasts forever, you should never plead guilty to any crime without advice from an experienced criminal defense attorney. Otherwise, for the rest of your life, the answer to the question, "Have you been convicted of a crime?" will always be "Yes."

Your future is important to us. Our goal is to resolve your criminal charges in a way that will not result in a criminal record or the forfeiture of your vehicle. For first-time offenders who are charged with a misdemeanor, such as shoplifting, we are often able to prevent a permanent criminal record if you retain us early enough. We will use every legal tool at our disposal to help you obtain the best possible outcome for your case.
