La Plata & Waldorf Felony Lawyer
If you have been charged with a felony, hiring an experienced felony defense lawyer may be the most important thing you do in your life.
In Maryland, a felony is the most serious criminal charge, reserved for activity the government considers especially harmful or dangerous. But the fact is, criminal defendants are frequently charged with a more serious crime than they deserve. Innocent people sometimes find themselves facing felony charges simply because the police made a mistake. In other cases, what should be a misdemeanor is ramped up to a felony because the state failed to exercise fair judgment when assessing the crime. It may also be that the alleged crime is, in fact, a felony, and an experienced La Plata & Waldorf felony lawyer is needed to effectively refute the charges and help ensure penalties are reduced to the greatest extent possible.
Our lawyers understand how frightening, demoralizing, and arbitrary felony charges can be. We are here to protect your rights and fight for your freedom.
