Fighting for your Defense

Conviction of any crime carries serious consequences. Even misdemeanors, often considered “minor” offenses, carry penalties including up to one year in jail. For anyone looking at the possibility of a year behind bars, that punishment is anything but minor. Felony conviction carries a penalty exceeding one year in prison – in some cases, lifetime incarceration. Other penalties associated with criminal conviction include fines, restitution, loss of driver’s license or other privileges, mandatory counseling or treatment, and other terms of probation that can severely impact your personal freedoms. Beyond legal penalties, misdemeanor or felony conviction makes a profound personal and professional impact. Families may be torn apart and a criminal record can make it difficult to gain admission into educational institutions, find or keep a job, and even secure a financial loan. Virginia criminal attorney Donna Murphy understands what is at stake. He works diligently to provide every defendant with quality legal representation and strives to bring each case to its optimal resolution.
