Representing Professionals Charged with a Crime

The stakes are higher for professionals who are under investigation for a crime or who were arrested for a misdemeanor or felony. The attorneys at Ticket Crushers are experienced in representing people engaged in professional careers, including:

physicians, nurses and other health care professionals
attorneys and students in law school
teachers and certified educators
members of the military
law enforcement officers at the local, state and national level

Many people who hold professional licenses must also address any action initiated by the board or commission that issued the professional license after being accused of a crime. Licensure issues can impact a person’s ability to practice in his or her chosen profession even if the person is never convicted of any criminal offense.

At Ticket Crushers we understand that the stakes are higher for professionals charged with any misdemeanor, felony or DUI charge. We help those clients address both the direct and collateral consequences of the criminal accusation.

High school, college, and grad students can also face a disciplinary action after an arrest. Additionally, individuals with a security clearance or concealed weapons permit can face collateral consequences.

The Difference Between Felonies and Misdemeanors

Under California law, a felony case is a criminal action in which the defendant is charged with a felony violation. Misdemeanor or infraction violations may be included with that action if they arose from the same incident as the felony accusation.

A misdemeanor case is a criminal action in which the defendant is charged with a misdemeanor and it may include an infraction charge. It does not include any felony violations, which are more serious. Misdemeanors include serious traffic violations, such as driving under the influence or reckless driving, which imposes possible jail time and expensive fines.
