Defending Against Misdemeanor Offenses in Philadelphia
Simple drug possession, simple assault without serious injury and minor thefts are all considered misdemeanor offenses. Cases handled in the county court system can result in jury trials. In Philadelphia, misdemeanors are tried before a municipal court judge without a jury.
At Avallone Law Associates, we know the right steps to take in protecting your constitutional rights. We will conduct a thorough investigation into the criminal allegations against you. We will also conduct our own investigation to uncover any evidence that can be used in your favor. Our firm's criminal defense attorneys are prepared to pursue a favorable resolution either through trial or a negotiated guilty plea agreement.
Offering an Aggressive Defense Against Felony Charges
Our firm's criminal defense attorneys have substantial experience representing clients facing felony charges for serious offenses, including:
- Drug charges
- Sexual abuse
- Assault and battery
- Robbery and burglary
- Gun crimes
Most felony convictions result in jail sentences. Crimes involving guns carry a mandatory five-year prison sentence. If you are charged with a felony, it is imperative that you have experienced representation on your side. At Avallone Law Associates, we are committed to providing a zealous and effective defense. We will investigate the case, locate witnesses, and bring the latest science and technology to your defense. You can choose to be tried by a judge or a jury. We can also discuss your case with the district attorney to present you with all available options, so you can make an informed choice of your strategy.
A Criminal Conviction Carries Long-Term Implications
A parent's chances of obtaining or maintaining child custody could greatly be restricted if someone in the household is accused or convicted of a serious criminal offense, such as drunk driving, drug possession, assault or a sex offense.
This applies to anyone in the household with a criminal history, including a boyfriend or girlfriend — even if the conviction was more than 20 years ago. At Avallone Law Associates, our background extends beyond criminal defense to family law. We have a firm understanding of how a criminal conviction could carry long-term implications. Our law firm is committed to protecting your future with an aggressive defense strategy.
