Misdemeanors may not be as severe as felonies, but they can still have significant consequences. At Arora Kamal, we understand that even a misdemeanor charge can affect your life in serious ways, including your employment, finances, and reputation. That’s why we provide strong, thorough defense for all misdemeanor charges to help you avoid harsh penalties and protect your future.

What Is a Misdemeanor?

In Arizona, misdemeanors are classified into three categories: Class 1, Class 2, and Class 3. While less severe than felonies, misdemeanors can still lead to jail time, fines, probation, and a criminal record. Common misdemeanor offenses include:

• Disorderly conduct
• Shoplifting
• Assault
• Criminal trespass
• Minor drug offenses

Even though these charges may seem minor, they can still carry significant penalties. For example, a Class 1 misdemeanor, the most serious type, can result in up to six months in jail and a $2,500 fine. At Arora Kamal, we treat all criminal charges seriously, and we will work tirelessly to reduce or dismiss your charges.

Every misdemeanor case is unique, and we tailor our defense strategies to the specifics of your situation. Our team will:

• Investigate the charges: We thoroughly examine all evidence, interview witnesses, and look for any weaknesses in the prosecution’s case.
• Negotiate with prosecutors: In many misdemeanor cases, we are able to negotiate a favorable plea deal that reduces charges or penalties.
• Fight for dismissal: If there are procedural errors or insufficient evidence, we will seek to have your charges dismissed entirely.
• Prepare for trial: If necessary, we are fully prepared to take your case to trial and aggressively defend you in court.

A DUI charge in Arizona is a serious offense that can have life-altering consequences. At Arora Kamal, we understand the stakes are high, and we are here to provide aggressive defense strategies to protect your rights, your freedom, and your driving privileges. Whether this is your first DUI or a repeat offense, our team has the experience and knowledge to guide you through the complex legal process and fight for the best possible outcome.

Understanding Arizona DUI Laws

Arizona has some of the toughest DUI laws in the country. You can be charged with a DUI if you are found driving with a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of 0.08% or higher, or if you are impaired to the slightest degree by drugs or alcohol. The penalties for a DUI conviction can be severe, including:

• Jail time
• Hefty fines and fees
• License suspension or revocation
• Mandatory alcohol or drug treatment programs
• Installation of an ignition interlock device (IID)

For aggravated DUI offenses, such as driving with a suspended license or having a child in the vehicle, the penalties are even more severe and can include felony charges.

How We Defend DUI Cases

At Arora Kamal, we know how to challenge DUI charges and fight for a reduction or dismissal. Our defense strategies may include:

• Challenging the traffic stop: If the officer did not have a valid reason to pull you over, we may be able to get the charges dismissed.
• Questioning the field sobriety tests: These tests are subjective and can be administered improperly. We will challenge any evidence gathered from these tests.
• Reviewing the breathalyzer or blood test: If there were errors in administering or calibrating the breathalyzer or blood test, we will work to have that evidence thrown out.
• Negotiating a plea deal: In some cases, we can negotiate a reduction in charges or penalties, particularly for first-time offenders.

Protecting Your Driving Privileges

One of the most immediate consequences of a DUI charge is the potential loss of your driver’s license. We will work to protect your driving privileges, including representing you in administrative hearings with the Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) to prevent or minimize the length of your suspension.

Felony charges are the most serious criminal offenses, and a conviction can lead to long-term consequences, including lengthy prison sentences, hefty fines, and a permanent criminal record. At Arora Kamal, we understand the gravity of felony charges, and we are committed to providing an aggressive and comprehensive defense to protect your rights and your future.

Types of Felony Charges

Felony charges in Arizona can include a wide range of offenses, such as:

• Aggravated assault
• Drug trafficking
• Robbery
• Burglary
• Sexual offenses
• Homicide

Each felony charge carries severe penalties, and the consequences of a conviction can follow you for the rest of your life. In addition to prison time, a felony conviction can result in the loss of certain civil rights, including the right to vote, own firearms, and obtain professional licenses.

Our Approach to Felony Defense

At Arora Kamal, we understand that every felony case is unique, and we approach each case with a tailored defense strategy. Our team will:

• Investigate the charges: We thoroughly examine all evidence and look for inconsistencies or weaknesses in the prosecution’s case.
• Challenge the evidence: We will challenge any evidence obtained unlawfully or through violations of your constitutional rights, such as illegal searches or coerced confessions.
• Explore all options: Whether through negotiation, plea agreements, or trial, we will explore every possible avenue to achieve the best outcome for your case.
• Prepare for trial: If your case goes to trial, we will aggressively defend you in court, presenting a strong case to secure your acquittal.

Protecting Your Future

A felony conviction can have devastating, long-lasting effects on your life, including difficulties securing employment, housing, or professional opportunities. At Arora Kamal, we fight to prevent these outcomes by providing a strong, thorough defense from the moment you’re charged.
