MISDEMEANORS In West Palm Beach

Misdemeanor charges in Florida can have serious consequences

If you have been arrested on a West Palm Beach misdemeanor, do not take it lightly. Florida laws are clear cut and the penalties for breaking the law are strict. Qualified misdemeanor attorneys can help you mitigate the damage.  

Misdemeanors can include: 

Misdemeanor Penalties

Unlike aggravated assault or aggravated battery, which are considered felonies, simple assault and battery, DUI and those crimes that fall under Florida domestic violence laws are considered misdemeanors in Florida. Along with numerous other misdemeanor offenses, these crimes carry penalties of up to one year in jail, one year of probation or a $1,000 fine for first-degree misdemeanors and 60 days in jail for second-degree misdemeanors.

Repeat Offenders in West Palm Beach

A court may show leniency for a first offense, but if you become a repeat or habitual offender, the courts will not be so kind and the penalties will become increasingly severe. As criminal defense lawyers in Palm Beach County for close to ten years, We have the experience and knowledge you need by your side. The Skier Law Firm, P.A.’s goal is to provide you with the best defense possible. If you are arrested, call us immediately.
