Misdemeanor Crimes

Misdemeanor Defense Lawyers in Phoenix, Arizona

In Arizona, criminal charges can be defined as either misdemeanors or felonies. Misdemeanors are less serious crimes than felonies.  There are three separate classes of misdemeanor, ranging from class one misdemeanor, which are the most serious and which can include a jail sentence of up to six months and a fine of up to $2500, to class three misdemeanors which can include jail time of up to 30 days, and a fine of up to $500. Common misdemeanors include:

  • DUI
  • False ID
  • Possession of marijuana
  • Domestic violence
  • Traffic tickets.

If a jail sentence is imposed, it is usually served at a local/county jail instead of a state prison. Persons charged with misdemeanors have the constitutional right to legal representation and to have a trial in court.

Our criminal defense lawyers can assist you in the defense of your case.  We have been successful in the defense of misdemeanors charged against our clients and have been able to frequently avoid any time in jail, and also reduce fines.

Even though misdemeanors are not as serious as felonies, it is essential that you take the charges seriously.  It is a crime and there are serious consequences.
