We're in it for the long haul

A conviction for a "minor" violation can lead to jail time, fines, or both. If you are facing more serious accusations for sexual misconduct, drug possession or assault, the penalties increase accordingly. Any conviction will become part of a permanent criminal record that can cost you employment and financial opportunities in the future.

Because every criminal charge is serious, it is important to hire a lawyer who is not looking to cut the first deal he is given. At Hemric, Hemric & Champion, P.A., we are in this for the long haul. We will do everything we can to make sure your legal rights are protected and that you receive a fair and just trial.
