MISDEMEANOR CHARGES IN FLORIDA

A misdemeanor charge in Florida can result in a sentence of up to one year in jail and significant fines, as well as affect your employment, your ability to drive, and can prevent you from maintaining certain licenses. As a result, it is crucial that your misdemeanor case is handled with extreme care and caution by an experienced criminal defense lawyer.

Examples of misdemeanor charges include, but are not limited to, the following:

  • Possession of alcohol by a person under 21
  • Possession of fewer than 20 grams cannabis
  • Violations of probation
  • DUI
  • Possession of paraphernalia
  • Battery
  • Driving on a suspended or revoked license
  • Petit theft/Shoplifting
  • Trespassing
  • Disorderly conduct
  • Criminal mischief (vandalism)
  • Passing bad bank checks

Our criminal defense attorneys always seek to avoid a conviction on our client’s record. Many misdemeanor cases may be eligible for the Misdemeanor Diversion Program, completion of which will result in a dismissal of all charges. However, if you have already been convicted of a misdemeanor, our firm can help you seek an expungement, as well.
