RETROACTIVE CRIMINAL LAWS?

If you have been charged and convicted of a crime, you know all too well how harsh the punishment can be. For instance, a DUI conviction might mean loss of your license or spending time in jail – or both. The fines and costs that go along with criminal charges are also high, and many criminal defendants are hoping for changes to the law so these consequences are not quite as high. One way to achieve this result is to make certain laws retroactive, especially in the area of violent vs. nonviolent crimes. The legislature is hard at work trying to do some of these things, and we keep an eye on any movement in that direction so we can give you the best advice possible if you are arrested. We handle DUI’s, traffic tickets, possession charges, and other types of criminal defense. Call to learn more.
