Felony Offenses

If you are searching for a Vero Beach, Fort Pierce or Stuart criminal defense lawyer, please contact Attorney Christopher J. Jacobs for a free, no-obligation consultation.

Felonies are the most serious crimes someone can be charged with, and they are all punishable by more than a year of incarceration in Florida’s Department of Corrections (Prison).  If convicted of a felony charge, you will be stripped of your civil rights, including the right to vote and the right to own a firearm.  In many cases, Attorney Christopher Jacobs is able to negotiate a result that does not involve a conviction and may be able to get your charges dismissed or reduced to a misdemeanor.

Potential Felony Penalties

Capital Felony: Punishable by death or life in prison.

Life Felony: Punishable by life in prison with no parole and a $15,000 fine.

First Degree Felony: Punishable by up to 30 Years in prison and a $10,000 fine.

Second Degree Felony: Punishable by up to 15 in prison and a $10,000 fine.

Third Degree Felony: Punishable by up to 5 Years in prison and a $5,000 fine.
