Queens Criminal Justice Lawyer Keetick Sanchez Discusses the Role of a Criminal Justice Attorney

Jun 1, 2022

June 01, 2022 - /PressAdvantage/ - Queens criminal justice lawyer Keetick Sanchez releases a new article (https://accidentlawyer-queens.com/criminal-justice-attorney/) that discusses what roles a criminal justice attorney may have and how they can help. The lawyer mentions that New York's legal system can be overwhelming for people facing criminal charges. Criminal charges can make someone vulnerable or fearful.

"When you are facing criminal charges in Queens, the consequences can be daunting. A criminal record may impact your future ability to get a job, find a place to live, or even apply to a school of your choice. This may affect your entire future. Don't leave your representation to chance," says the Queens criminal justice attorney.

The lawyer explains that a criminal defense attorney might be able to help with DWI cases. DWI cases in New York City carry severe penalties. These penalties can include severe fines, license suspensions, or revocations. A conviction for DWI can lead to a criminal record. An experienced criminal defense attorney can help reduce the charges.

Attorney Keetick L. Sanchez mentions that misdemeanors in New York can lead to sentences of anywhere from 15 to 364 days imprisonment. New York City courts have a reputation for imposing less severe penalties for misdemeanors, as well as possible probation periods depending on the charges and the criminal record.

In the article, the lawyer discusses the possibility of serious punishments and imprisonment for someone who has been charged in New York City or other surrounding areas with a felony. A felony charge can be a serious offense for someone who has had a criminal record or a previous conviction.

According to the criminal defense lawyer, "Under New York laws, possession of a controlled substance without a prescription is considered illegal. New York law classifies controlled substances into five schedules, with Schedule I substances the most dangerous and carrying the highest levels of punishment. As the levels decrease in their danger and abuse probability, so does their level of punishment for the accused with some only classified as a Class A misdemeanor."

Lastly, attorney Keetick emphasizes the importance of having an experienced criminal defense attorney if someone is being charged with a criminal offense. Having an experienced defense lawyer may help the defendant understand their rights and make sure that they are making the best decisions moving forward.
