Washington County Criminal Lawyer Myles Schneider knows being charged with a crime can be a frightening experience because there are heavy consequences if a conviction is the end result. Every crime has its penalties. DWI is an example of a crime that can yield very severe consequences if a conviction is had. An individual can lose their vehicle, can have their license suspended or revoked, face jail time and/or hefty fines. Individuals that have been convicted of DWI have also lost their jobs, had difficulty finding new jobs, have faced very high auto insurance rates, and a number of other personal circumstances.
If you or a loved one is faced with a criminal charge, whether guilty or not it is important you do not face the charges alone. An experienced Minnesota criminal defense attorney is needed because knowledge of the law will help ensure that the best possible outcome is realized.

Theft and shoplifting are two crimes that can yield severe penalties. Theft involves the taking of property without permission, while shoplifting occurs when someone steals property that belongs to a retail store or similar establishment. Both of these can result in repayment of the value of the item(s) stolen, as well as jail time, and a mark on your permanent record. In addition, those that are convicted of stealing have tainted reputations. They are labeled as thieves. Many times, the only evidence in a case is weak or may be a “he said/she said” type of scenario. This means that legal representation is needed that is aggressive with a personal touch.
Domestic Assault
Claims of domestic assault occur frequently throughout the United States and such claims are made when physical abuse allegedly occurs within the home. Just as there are many legitimate cases reported, there are cases that are not legitimate. False accusations can be the result of retaliation resulting from another matter, so a Washington County criminal defense lawyer is needed to provide the facts.
Domestic assault can result in prison time, depending upon the severity of the charge. In other words, it is possible for a conviction to result in a misdemeanor, a gross misdemeanor, or a felony. No matter the conviction and its consequences, the future of the accused can be ruined. If you’ve been accused, you need to be defended by an attorney that will work with you by providing evidence of innocence or evidence that charges should be reduced. The goal is to achieve the best possible outcome.
Sex Crimes
Sex crimes are very serious in that a conviction can literally ruin the rest of a person’s life. A conviction can result in placement on the Sex Offender Registry, which more or less shows every detail of a person’s life, including a photo, weight, height, tattoos, home address, and work address. If you were placed upon the registry, people within your community would have to be notified and you would not be allowed within a certain distance of schools and parks. There is also prison time involved, so competent representation is needed to ensure the correct outcome in the case.
