Defending Against Misdemeanor And Felony Charges

Most people understand that a misdemeanor charge is considered to be a less serious offense than a felony charge. However, a conviction for either a felony or a misdemeanor will still result in a criminal record that will follow you for life. At the law firm of Kaehne & Barrette, S.C., our attorneys understand the impact that any type of criminal conviction can have on a person’s future. That is why we help people throughout Sheboygan and across Wisconsin build a strong defense against all criminal charges.

Felonies And Misdemeanors: What’s The Difference?

The biggest difference between a misdemeanor and a felony is the potential consequences associated with the type of charge. The penalties for a misdemeanor include a jail sentence of less than one year, community service, fines, rehabilitation programs, and probation. A felony conviction carries the possibility of more than one year, if not decades, or even a life sentence, in prison.
