Most crimes in the United States fall under the classification of either misdemeanor or felony. Between the two, there’s no question that a felony is more serious. A felony is any crime that can be punished by a year or more in state prison. As of 1996, Florida has enacted habitual offender laws, also known as “Three Strikes” laws. This means that, if you are convicted of three violent felonies in a row, you will be subject to mandatory prison terms depending on the seriousness of the offenses.
The punishment for a felony does not stop once you walk out of prison, either. A felony on your record can make it difficult to find a career in many fields including education, medicine, law, and finances. Even if you have worked hard to build a career over the years, felony convictions have a long tradition of leading to termination. A felony conviction can even strip away rights many people take for granted, from the right to vote to the right to possess a firearm to the right to run for office. If you are facing felony charges, you need an attorney who won’t stop fighting for you.
