Can I go to jail for a first time shoplifting charge?

Answered by attorney Andrea Rogers (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at The Rogers Law Firm
If you plead guilty and pay the fine, you will have a shoplifting conviction on your permanent criminal record and it can't be expunged. If you hire a lawyer to represent you, your attorney can get the charge dismissed or reduced to a lesser offense.

What happens if my DUI is reduced to reckless driving?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Francis John Cowhig (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Francis John Cowhig
Depending on many factors, it may be possible to have a DUI reduced to a reckless driving charge. It is standard procedure to blow into the breathalyzer twice in order to get 2 validating readings. I strongly suggest that your girlfriend contact an experienced criminal law attorney for a face-to-face consultation and give him/her all of the facts surrounding her arrest. He/she would then be in a better position to analyze het case and advise her of her options.
