Penalties
The following penalties may be imposed for the different classifications of misdemeanor offenses in Florida:
- First Degree – Punishable by up to 1 year in county jail and a fine of up to $1,000
- Second Degree – Punishable by up to 60 days in jail
It is important to note that the specific penalties enforced by the court may vary depending on the circumstances of the particular case, the jurisdiction and even the judge's discretion in some cases. It is therefore important to discuss your specific misdemeanor charges with a criminal lawyer who can advise you on what penalties may apply for your unique case. Don’t make the mistake of assuming a misdemeanor is a “minor” case that doesn’t deserve legal representation. Misdemeanor charges can result in jail time, fines, and more.

4 Benefits of Hiring a Criminal Attorney
-
Guidance You may know nothing about the criminal system and may be confused on what to do next. You'll need an attorney who will guide you through the entire process to make things a little easier for you.
-
Relationships Our attorneys have been working in the courts for a long time and have developed positive relationships with all the people you may face during your case. This can help improve the position in your case, which can help your outcome.
-
Knowledge You won't be able to look into all the possibilities alone. Your criminal attorney is well-versed in criminal law and will be able to provide you with a strong strategy and turn the odds in your favor.

Building a Case Unlike a prosecutor, a criminal defense attorney will spend the time to build a strong case to help by dismissing your case or reducing the penalties.
