Misdemeanor Record

Whether you are charged as an adult or juvenile, a misdemeanor-conviction can deny you employment and stigmatize you as a criminal. Misdemeanor-Defense Attorneys Kevin and Tim Clancy specialize in the defense of those accused of misdemeanors and felonies.

A misdemeanor should be taken seriously because a conviction results in a criminal record. A misdemeanor likely will show up on a background check. Once you are convicted or plead guilty, it will remain on your record forever.

Being accused or convicted of a misdemeanor can have devastating effects on your life. For misdemeanor-crimes, an experienced criminal defense lawyer can make the difference between being found guilty or not guilty.

A misdemeanor case that results in a not-guilty verdict or that is dismissed or reduced to a Class C deferred adjudication may be eligible for an expunction. A misdemeanor-case that is a Class A or Class B deferred adjudication may be eligible for ruling of nondisclosure of criminal history.
