Crimes by College Students

Crimes by College Students

College students can learn valuable lessons both inside and outside the classroom, but a criminal conviction can be the wrong kind of lesson for a young person who makes a mistake or who is wrongly accused of a crime. Being charged with a misdemeanor or felony in college is a serious matter that can adversely impact a young person’s academics and future career.

A conviction can lead to problems such as:

  • A criminal record
  • The loss of federal funding for school
  • Expulsion from school
  • Denial of admission to graduate school
  • The inability to obtain a desired job
  • Action by a school’s disciplinary board or individual administrators

If your son or daughter has been charged with a misdemeanor or a felony on campus or off campus, you have the right to be worried about the impact the case may have on the present and the future. You also have the right to retain an excellent defense lawyer who can make a difference in the outcome. That’s where I can help.
