Many people assume that because a
misdemeanor is less serious than a felony, it
does not need to be treated with hard-
hitting and aggressive defense. This is a
mistake. Penalties for misdemeanors are less
serious than felonies, but a misdemeanor
conviction can nonetheless affect your
future on a daily basis for the rest of your
life.
