Even if you have been charged with a crime and are pending trial, your constitutional rights still remain in full force.

Types of Criminal Cases We Handle

Although some criminal convictions carry higher penalties than others, there is really no such thing as a “minor” criminal charge. All criminal offenses should be taken seriously, and failing to do so could lead to harsh penalties and other long-lasting consequences. 

As soon as you are arrested and charged with a criminal offense, prosecutors and investigators will begin to gather evidence and start to build their case against you. Consequently, you should hire an experienced Montgomery County criminal defense lawyer as soon as you possibly can to represent you throughout the proceedings. 

At the VanNoy Firm, our knowledgeable team of lawyers handles a variety of different criminal charges and cases on a regular basis. Criminal cases that we handle include the following:

• Drunk driving (DUI) offenses
• Motor vehicle criminal offenses

Possible Penalties in a Criminal Case

The potential penalties imposed for a conviction in a criminal case depend on a variety of factors. Those factors include whether the charge is a felony or misdemeanor, as well as the specific allegations in a case, including any aggravating factors or prior convictions on your record. Potential consequences could include fines, jail time, probation, community service, driver’s license suspension, and more. You also might suffer harm to your reputation, which can make it difficult for you to rent housing, qualify for educational programs, or find a job. 

Potential Defenses to a Criminal Charge

In many cases, defendants can raise one or more legal defenses to a criminal charge. For example, a defendant may allege that his or her constitutional rights were violated or that the police engaged in entrapment techniques. The accused could also argue that someone else threatened them with bodily harm if they refused to commit the crime or that they acted in self-defense. Our skilled lawyers can identify all possible defenses in your specific case.
