California Misdemeanor Offense Attorney
In Stanislaus and San Joaquin County, California, criminal defense attorney Thomas P. Hogan represents individuals who have been charged with misdemeanor crimes and violations.
While a misdemeanor is not as serious as a felony in terms of penalties, a misdemeanor conviction will still appear on your criminal record. A misdemeanor is punishable by a fine or less than one year in jail. A misdemeanor charge of assault may stem from something as simple as a barroom fight or being drunk and disorderly in a public place.
An experienced criminal defense lawyer, Thomas Hogan, will defend your rights in misdemeanor cases. He works to keep your record clean if you've been charged with any type of misdemeanor, including the following:
- Assault, battery
- Disorderly conduct, resisting arrest
- Drunk driving/DUI and public intoxication / under the influence
- Marijuana possession (small quantities)
- Petty theft
- Probation violations
- Robbery
- Trespassing
Though most first time offenders who are convicted with a misdemeanor receive probation, this is not the case if you have been convicted of any previous offense — felony or misdemeanor.
If you have been convicted of a misdemeanor or felony in the past, it is quite likely that an additional conviction will lead to jail time. That is why your choice of a lawyer is critical to maintaining your freedom. Mr. Hogan is an aggressive advocate of his clients' rights and will fight hard for a successful outcome in your case.
