Frequently Asked Questions
Still have questions? Take a look at the FAQ or reach out anytime. If you’re feeling ready, go ahead and schedule a free consultation.
-
Stay calm and exercise your right to remain silent. Do not explain your side of the story without an attorney present. Call Panther City Law as soon as possible — early legal intervention can significantly affect the outcome of your case.
-
Yes. Even if you're innocent, being charged with a crime is a serious legal issue. Prosecutors are actively building a case against you. An attorney can safeguard your rights, challenge weak evidence, and ensure your voice is heard.
-
Misdemeanors are generally less serious and may result in fines or up to one year in county jail. Felonies carry steeper penalties including state prison time. Both can affect your record, employment, and future opportunities.
-
Bail is the amount set by the court to ensure you return for future court dates after release. A skilled defense attorney can argue for lower bail or a personal recognizance bond depending on the circumstances.
-
We understand that legal fees can feel overwhelming, especially when you're already dealing with a stressful situation. Panther City Law offers flexible payment options to make quality legal representation accessible. During your free consultation, we'll discuss fees transparently and work with you to find an arrangement that fits your situation.
