New York College Student Defense Attorney
College students can easily find themselves in trouble with the law. Unfortunately, the consequences of a criminal conviction can follow you for years. One youthful mistake can derail a promising future and lead to many problems down the road. We can give you the strong defense you need against any misdemeanor charges, including:
- Unlawful Possession of Marijuana (UPM)
- Underage drinking
- Vandalism
- Petty theft and shoplifting
- False imprisonment
- Burglary
- Criminal mischief
- Disorderly conduct
- Mayhem
If it is your first offense, we have an excellent chance to resolve the matter through community service and an Adjournment in Contemplation of Dismissal (ACD). An ACD allows you to be discharged without a conviction if you avoid any legal difficulty for a period of time, generally six months. Basically, there will be no lasting impact from the arrest and court proceeding.
