Have you recently received a ticket for trespassing in Johnson’s Shut-Ins State Park, MO? Was the ticket issued by a park ranger (or someone else working at the park who had the authority)? Were you in the park after hours (or in a restricted area of the park)? Are you thinking about just pleading guilty to the charge? If so, are you familiar with the consequences of that decision? Are you familiar with the benefits that you may receive by hiring an experienced attorney?
We Keep Our Fees Low So That Everyone Can Have a Chance to Get Legal RepresentationWhen you are faced with criminal charges (like a Johnson’s Shut-Ins State Park MO trespassing ticket), then you are far better off retaining an attorney to help you through the process. Because otherwise, you are going to end up dealing the judge, prosecutor, and court by yourself. And when this happens, it usually does not end up well (because most people do nothing more than plead guilty to the charge).
$450 to Take Care of Most Missouri Criminal Defense Misdemeanor ChargesBut pleading guilty allows the state to put the criminal conviction on your permanent record. With a conviction on your record, you will run into problems down the road getting a job (because the potential employer will very likely run a criminal background check); and you will have a difficult time renting an apartment; and you will in most cases lose your current governmental benefits (whether it is food stamps or public housing). In addition, this sort of charge is a Class B Misdemeanor (which comes with a potential sentence of up to six (6) months of jail and a $500 fine).
At the Very Least, We Want to Get the Charges Reduced So That It Does Not Show Up on Your RecordWe have a much better plan in mind to deal with this issue!!
