Learn MoreIn Frederick, criminal offenses are classified as either felonies or misdemeanors. Felony offenses include serious crimes such as assault, murder, attempted murder, robbery and drug trafficking charges. If convicted of a felony charge, you will most likely face a multi-year prison sentence and/or major fines. Misdemeanors are less serious crimes, such as shoplifting, DUI & DWI, domestic violence, drug possession, and probation violations. A misdemeanor charge can result in jail time, probation, community service, and/or restitution—depending on the severity of the offense.
To try a criminal case, the prosecution must have evidence of the defendant’s guilt—and prove that guilt to the jury—beyond a reasonable doubt. In our system of justice, defendants are considered innocent until proven guilty. It is the defense attorney’s job to tear down the prosecution’s case, provide the jury with reasonable doubt, and protect the client’s rights.
