Frequently Asked Questions

  • Questions

  • What Is The Difference Between Probation & Parole?

    Answer

    If a judge releases you on a probationary period (rather than assigning any jail/prison time) you will be enabled to live your normal life with minor stipulations and conditions. Parole occurs after serving time in prison due to a conviction. If you maintain good behavior during your prison sentence, you can petition for parole or early release. If you violate parole, you will return to prison to finish your sentence, or you will get a new sentence.

  • Can I Clear My Criminal Record?

    Answer

    If you were previously arrested or are currently facing charges, your criminal history will loom over you like a black cloud. A criminal record can make it difficult to find employment, can put strain on your personal relationships, and can limit your opportunities. If you are looking to expunge your criminal record, we can help you. To find out if you are eligible to seal your record, get in touch with our attorney.

  • Do I Need An Attorney If I Plan To Plead Guilty?

    Answer

    Even if you plan to plead guilty, you should hire an experienced criminal defense attorney. Self-representation can lead to severe consequences. With an attorney in your corner, your chances of securing a more favorable case outcome is greatly increased.
