Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What should I do if I am arrested?

If you are arrested, remain calm and exercise your right to remain silent. Do not speak to law enforcement officers without an attorney present. Contact Kearney Law as soon as possible for immediate legal representation.

What is the difference between a misdemeanor and a felony?

Misdemeanors are less serious crimes that typically result in fines, probation, or jail time of up to one year. Felonies are more severe crimes that carry longer prison sentences, larger fines, and significant long-term consequences.

Can a criminal charge be dismissed?

Yes, criminal charges can be dismissed if there is insufficient evidence, procedural errors, or if your constitutional rights were violated during the investigation or arrest. An experienced attorney can analyze your case and determine the best course of action.

What happens if I am convicted?

The consequences of a criminal conviction depend on the severity of the crime. Penalties may include jail time, probation, fines, community service, and a permanent criminal record. We work tirelessly to minimize these consequences and explore all available legal options.

Do I need an attorney if I plan to plead guilty?

Yes. Even if you plan to plead guilty, an attorney can help negotiate a better plea deal, reduce penalties, and explore alternative sentencing options that may be available to you.

Can I have my criminal record expunged?

Under certain circumstances, criminal records can be sealed or expunged, which can help remove barriers to employment, housing, and other opportunities. We can assess whether you qualify for record expungement or sealing.

How much does it cost to hire a criminal defense attorney?

Legal fees vary depending on the complexity of the case. We offer transparent pricing and work with clients to find a payment plan that fits their budget.

How soon should I contact an attorney after being charged?

Immediately. The sooner you contact an attorney, the better your chances of building a strong defense and protecting your rights.
