What a Criminal Record Can Mean for You
When charged with a crime, the most immediate fears are the threat of incarceration and high fines. However, you should also understand that upon conviction, you will also develop a criminal record, which means that your crime will essentially follow you for years to come. Some of the long-term consequences that obtaining a criminal record may have are as follows:
- You will find it very challenging to get a job, as most places of employment require background checks
- If you were convicted of a DUI, you will most likely lose your driver’s license for months or years
- If you were convicted of a sex crime, you will have to become a Registered Sex Offender
- You may not be able to rent certain places to live
- You may not be able to secure certain loans
- If you are an illegal immigrant, it may warrant your deportation
- If you have children and are divorced or will be soon, it may affect your child custody agreement
These are just some of the additional ramifications that a criminal conviction can have, which is why if you’ve been charged with a crime of any sort here in Louisiana, it is in your best interests to retain the services of an experienced Monroe criminal defense lawyer as soon as possible.
