Felony & Misdemeanor Charges: What You Need to Know
If you’ve been charged with a felony or misdemeanor, now is the time to act. A strong legal defense can mean the difference between a conviction and a second chance. Contact Abella Law Firm today to discuss your options. Kansas and Missouri classify criminal offenses as either misdemeanors or felonies, with penalties that vary based on the severity of the crime, prior convictions, and circumstances surrounding the case.
Misdemeanors: These lower-level offenses can still carry jail time, fines, and a criminal record. Common misdemeanors include theft, trespassing, simple assault, and first-time drug possession charges.
Felonies: More serious crimes such as aggravated assault, burglary, or drug distribution are classified as felonies and can result in years in prison, heavy fines, and a permanent criminal record.
The difference between a misdemeanor and a felony can come down to strong legal representation. Gregory Abella’s experience in Kansas and Missouri criminal law ensures you have an attorney who will fight for the best possible outcome in your case.
