If you are convicted of a misdemeanor offense, it will be entered into your permanent criminal record. Having a criminal record can affect your ability to obtain or maintain employment, find a place to live, apply for loans, and other life opportunities.
The Importance of Hiring an Attorney
If you have been arrested for or charged with a misdemeanor offense in Michigan, it is still imperative to seek legal help from an experienced criminal defense attorney. A skilled lawyer can evaluate the specific circumstances of your case and determine all of your available legal options to either get your charges reduced or your entire case dismissed.
If you have been convicted of a misdemeanor offense, an attorney can help you expunge the crime. When your conviction is expunged, the records are destroyed and the public cannot access records related to your crime.
