Felony Charges
There is much at stake with any case that goes to trial, particularly when individuals face felony charges. With this in mind, it would be a huge mistake to entrust your legal defense to a firm that does not have experience with felony offenses both at the state level and in federal court.

Felonies Are Not To Be Taken Lightly
Felonies feature jail sentencing that is greater than six months in a state prison or more than a year in a federal correctional facility. Ohio has five classes of felony ranging for first to fifth, which are six months to 11 years. Ohio categorizes murder and aggravated murder as unclassified felonies, with the possibility of 15 years to life without parole to death. Federal felony classes range for E (least severe) to A (most severe). Either way, there is mandatory minimum sentencing for certain charges that are still quite severe. Fines and restitution can also be quite substantial.
