Indiana Criminal Misdemeanor Law Attorney
Merrillville - Crown Point - Gary - Valparaiso - Lake County - Porter County
If you have been charged with a misdemeanor crime you might be tempted to avoid the matter or not take the situation seriously, even if you were formally arrested, because "after all it's not a felony." However, every criminal charge can have an impact on every aspect of your life. It is imperative to enlist the services of an attorney who can act to protect your rights and reputation.
At the Law Office of Julie R. Glade, RN, JD, my associates and I, believe in focused representation when it comes to defending criminal misdemeanor charges, and we are sensitive to the ramifications of an arrest, no matter how incidental the charge may seem to be. Contact us today if you have been charged with a criminal misdemeanor, and let us use our resources to help you.
We have experience with a range of criminal misdemeanor charges or similar matters, including:
- Operating While Intoxicated (OWI)
- Domestic violence and disturbance
- Assault and battery
- Stalking
- Harassment
- Traffic violations
Zealous Representation
I believe that the key to an effective criminal defense is researching all the evidence involved in your case. We aim to identify available options allowed by law based on the criminal charges at issue, and to explain the ramifications of a conviction as it pertains to each charge. By working with the prosecutor and addressing available strategies in court, we strive to have the charges reduced or even dropped altogether.
The importance of addressing misdemeanor charges cannot be over-emphasized. A blemish on your record can result in loss of your job and prevent you from obtaining other types of employment. It can effect whether certain housing applications are accepted. It may alter your relationships with family and friends, your standing in the community and, of course, your permanent record.
