When you are arrested and charged with a crime, there will be a major impact on your life and potentially on the lives of your loved ones. The range of potential penalties if convicted vary depending on the level of the misdemeanor or felony. Aggressive and experienced representation can limit those penalties.
If you have been arrested, charged or convicted of a crime in Indiana, the court records are likely public record with a few limited exceptions. The same public records are available to future employers and may limit your ability to obtain future employment. Indiana law allows some felony and misdemeanor charges, arrests and conviction records to be expunged or modified if certain conditions are satisfied.
