Georgia Criminal Lawyer - Misdemeanor
A misdemeanor is a crime that is less serious than a felony and is usually punishable by fine, penalty, forfeiture, or confinement in a place other than prison. Misdemeanors are typically more serious than a petty offense.
If a misdemeanor results in a jail sentence, the time spent is usually less than one year and is served in a local city or county jail rather than a federal prison.
If you are convicted of a misdemeanor, you still have basic rights such as voting, serving on juries and serving in the military.
If you've been charged with a crime in Georgia, whether misdemeanor or felony, you have the right to have an attorney present during any questioning. For help with Georgia criminal offenses, contact The Law Office of Trey Phillips, LLC. We can help!
