Consequences of Misdemeanor Crimes in California

If you are convicted of a misdemeanor in California, there is a very good chance that you will face up to six months in jail and/or pay a $1,000 fine. That being said, if you are convicted of a misdemeanor, you will also most likely obtain a criminal record, which can follow you for years, or even the rest of your life. Having a criminal record can prevent you from getting certain jobs, living in certain places, securing certain loans, and more. For this very reason, if you are charged with a misdemeanor crime in California, it is critical that you retain the services of a knowledgeable Sacramento misdemeanor defense lawyer who can fight your charges, tooth-and-nail.
