Best Syracuse Lawyers for Defending Violations
A violation charge is not something you should take lightly. If not handled right from the start, a violation charge can land you in local jail for up to fifteen days and can result in serious consequences like a permanent mark on your criminal record. This can lead to a loss of employment, being refused for certain licenses, entry to school and, for certain violations like unlawful possession of marijuana (UPM), obtaining federal student loans. Many people not realizing that a violation can have drastic effects go to court, plead guilty, and pay a small fine. Down the road these people realize they made a huge mistake that, unfortunately, cannot ever be fixed. Although a violation charge is not a crime, make no mistake, it must be taken very seriously.
