Every Criminal Charge Is Serious - Get Legal Guidance From Our Kirkland Misdemeanor Criminal Attorneys

It's all too common for people to underestimate the severity of a misdemeanor criminal charge. If you're convicted of a crime like trespassing, public intoxication, petty theft, or assault, your life could be dramatically affected, and you could even end up in jail.

Some other common misdemeanor offenses in Kirkland include:

• DUI (Driving Under the Influence)
• Indecent Exposure

In cases involving youthful indiscretion, our Kirkland misdemeanor lawyers aggressively fight to prevent the accused from acquiring a criminal record, and the terrible repercussions it can cause.
