Understanding Felony Charges in Florida
In Florida, a felony is a criminal offense that is punishable by more than one year in prison. Felonies are more serious than misdemeanors, which are punishable by up to one year in jail. In addition to prison time, felony convictions can result in other serious penalties, such as fines, probation, and more. Additionally, a felony conviction will result in a permanent criminal record, which can make it difficult to find employment, housing, and more.

How Can I Defend Against Felony Charges?
When you are charged with a felony, you have the right to defend yourself. You are innocent until proven guilty, and the prosecution has the burden of proving your guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.
What Are the Consequences of a Felony Conviction?
If you are convicted of a felony, you will face serious consequences. The specific penalties you face will depend on the nature of the crime, your criminal history, and other factors. In Florida, felonies are classified into five different categories, with capital felonies being the most serious and third-degree felonies being the least serious.
