Felonies vs Misdemeanors
In Texas, criminal offenses are classified as either felonies or misdemeanors. Misdemeanors are less severe offenses that carry penalties up to one year in jail. Felonies, which include offenses such as murder, assault, and burglary, carry more severe sentences ranging from prison time to capital punishment.
Understanding the distinction between these charges is crucial, as the legal strategies and potential outcomes differ significantly. Our experienced criminal defense attorneys can evaluate the specifics of your case and develop a defense strategy tailored to your situation.
