Practice Areas | Criminal Law

The criminal law system involves prosecution of criminal acts, which were committed (allegedly), by an individual or individuals. Depending on the nature of the crime, prosecution can take place at a local level such as a city court, at the state level or a federal level.

There are various crimes that a person can be prosecuted for and different punishments come with each crime depending on the severity of the crime.

Murder, robbery, theft, fraud, child abuse or negligence, rape, sexual molestation and drug offenses are some examples of cases that would be prosecuted. Depending on the crime, if convicted, the accused can end up on probation, be sentenced to a local jail or be sentenced to state or federal prison.
