Criminal Defense FAQs
- Should I talk to police without an attorney present?
- No. You have the right to remain silent and the right to an attorney. Exercise both. Anything you say can and will be used against you.
- What is the difference between a misdemeanor and a felony in Alabama?
- Misdemeanors are less serious offenses with maximum penalties of up to one year in jail. Felonies are more serious and carry sentences of more than one year in state prison.
- Can a criminal charge be expunged from my record in Alabama?
- Alabama does allow expungement of certain charges, primarily arrests that did not lead to conviction. An attorney can review your record and advise whether you qualify.
- What happens at an arraignment?
- At arraignment, you are formally informed of the charges against you and asked to enter a plea. Having an attorney present at this stage is critical.
