What Is a Felony?

A felony is a type of crime that encompasses a more severe level of punishment as compared to lesser crimes, such as misdemeanors and violations. If you have been charged with any type of felony, such as a sex crime or aggravated assault, contact a criminal defense lawyer to help you better understand your situation. Your criminal attorney can advise you as to whether you are facing a first-degree, second-degree, or third-degree felony. A first-degree felony is the most serious type of felony that can lead to the most severe repercussions.

If you’re convicted of a felony, you’re almost certainly facing a long prison sentence, as compared to up to a year in jail for lesser crimes. The court can order you to pay fines and restitution. After you’re released from prison, you’ll likely have a sentence of probation. Plus, you’ll face other long-term consequences, such as losing your right to own firearms, to vote, or to serve in the military.
