Legal Defense for College Age Students
If you or your child is a college age student, being charged with a criminal offense is very devastating. There are several things that an experienced criminal defense attorney can do to prevent a poor decision from becoming a permanent criminal record.
At the Law Office of Geri R. Joneson in Fort Collins, Colorado, I represent numerous students. If your son or a daughter has been charged with a crime in northern Colorado, I offer a free initial consultation to provide you with information about what you and your child can expect and perhaps how a criminal conviction can be avoided.
One of my primary objectives is to minimize the effect of an arrest on a young adult's future. As parents, we are often tempted to let our children deal the consequences of their poor decisions on their own. But that's not always the best approach. It is better to engage the assistance of an experienced criminal defense attorney to assist your son or daughter through the process. There are far too many long-term consequences that must be considered.
Few employers today will hire anyone who has a felony conviction. Even a misdemeanor conviction may need to be disclosed to potential employers when your son or daughter is applying for a job.
I represent young adults and students charged with all types of criminal offenses, including:
- Disorderly conduct, noise violation and public intoxication
- Minor in possession of alcohol or underage drinking
- DUI/DWAI/UDD
- Criminal mischief
- Theft, burglary and trespass
- Assault
- Harassment
- Domestic violence
- Drug offenses
Accepting the consequences of a poor decision is one thing, but having a permanent record is altogether different. Don't try to represent yourself or have your child go to court alone. Contact the Law Office of Geri R. Joneson, LLC for a free initial consultation.
