Attorneys Assisting Clients in the UNCC Area and Throughout Charlotte, If you have been charged with a crime, no matter how minor it may seem, you should speak with a lawyer. If there is any possibility of jail time, you need a criminal defense lawyer on your side who will either fight the charge in court or work hard to get the charges reduced and take a prison sentence off the table. Even if your charge cannot involve jail time, a conviction may come back to haunt you later in life. Say you were convicted of trespassing. Later, a potential employer may look at your criminal record and assume that the conviction was actually a burglary that was reduced to a trespassing charge.
