1. If you do not know how to negotiate a plea bargain with the local prosecutor (and make the necessary arguments in front of the judge, and how to navigate the complex paperwork of the clerk’s office), then you are taking a huge risk with your future.
2. The chances of you receiving a positive outcome by yourself are very slim. This isn’t because you are stupid. In fact, it takes most lawyers many years before they are comfortable handling criminal cases.
3. But a good attorney can usually get most charges reduced to a lesser infraction (so that nothing negative appears on your record)

Pleading Guilty Is Not Your Best Option!! If I Decide to Plead Guilty, What Will Likely Happen to Me?

1. You could face jail time, fines, and court costs. You could misunderstand the conditions of your guilty plea, and end up facing more jail time. And you will definitely spend many, many hours of your life trying to figure out how the whole thing works.
2. But probably the worst consequence of pleading guilty is that charge will become a part of your permanent record
3. This will mean anyone running a criminal background check on you will see it. This will in turn have a tremendous impact on your chances of getting a decent job (or renting an apartment, or seeking student financial aid, or receiving governmental assistance)

What Differences Exist Between Felonies and Misdemeanors?

1. One of the biggest differences is that only the state of Missouri can charge you with a felony; individual municipalities can limited to issuing misdemeanors
2. Misdemeanors are fairly simple criminal infractions (like trespassing, peace disturbance, or petty theft); felonies are reserved for behavior that is much more severe (like arson, burglary, and aggravated assault)
