Felony Defense in Orange County, CA
Orange County Criminal Defense Lawyers
A felony is the most serious type of criminal offense that a person can commit. In California, a felony offense is punishable by a minimum of 1 year in state prison, all the way up to life imprisonment or even the death penalty. Depending upon the classification of the felony offense for which you are facing criminal charges, you may be facing years of imprisonment, heavy fines, probation, sex offender registration, and much more. You may also risk losing your professional license as an attorney, doctor, teacher or other professional if you are convicted.

Types of Felony Offenses in California
Following are some examples of offenses which may be charged as felonies in California. However, the particular charges you face will vary depending upon the special circumstances of your particular offense, as well as what the prosecuting attorney decides.
One particular factor that makes felony convictions so serious is California’s Three Strikes Law. If convicted of a violent or serious felony, you will receive a “strike” on your criminal record. Penalties will be doubled for a second strike, and you may face 25 years to life in prison for a third conviction, even when not violent or serious.
