Being arrested for a crime is a stressful and trying time in a person's life. It is critical to know how the system works, your rights, and your defenses before the gears of the legal system start turning.

State Crimes
Report
Petty misdemeanor offenses are criminal offenses that are punishable anywhere from 24 hours to 6 months of incarceration (typically 30 days maximum). Petty misdemeanors may also be punishable by probationary terms and fines up to $1000. It is often difficult to determine if you have been charged with a petty misdemeanor crime because police sometimes issue citations to a person for petty misdemeanor offenses as opposed to arresting the person.
Federal Crimes
Report
There are many differences between being prosecuted for a crime in state court as opposed to federal court. Not all criminal defense attorneys practice in federal court, and it is important to consult with an attorney who handles federal cases if you are being investigated or have been arrested for a federal crime.
DUI & Excessive Speeding
Report
Two of the most common traffic crimes are Operating a Vehicle Under the Influence of an Intoxicant (DUI) and Excessive Speeding. If you are convicted of either of these crimes, it will result with you having a criminal record. Having a criminal record may affect your current or future job, and educational prospects.
Traffic Tickets
Report
Traffic violations are also referred to as traffic infractions. If you are cited for a traffic infraction, the citation number usually begins with a prefix of DTI. Traffic violations are traffic offenses that are not punishable by incarceration. Traffic violations have been "decriminalized" and therefore considered to be civil matters typically punishable by a fine or community service.
