A Criminal Conviction Might Tarnish Your Future
If an arrest leads to a conviction in Texas, you may be forced to spend time in jail or prison. In addition to separating you from your family and friends, a criminal conviction might also have negative repercussions even after your sentence is completed.
In their 2016 publication of NIJ Update, Catherine E. Forrest explored the collateral consequences of a criminal conviction, specifically on when ex-offenders try to reintegrate into society after release. According to Forrest, criminal convictions might restrict ex-offenders’ ability to:
- Vote
- Own a firearm
- Interact with children
- Seek gainful employment
- Obtain public housing
- Obtain traditional housing
- Teach at specific education levels, e.g., college
Our team will fight hard to limit these negative effects. Our legal team might be able to negotiate a dismissal of the charges made against you or a reduction in their degree and severity. Our goal is to mitigate these damages and protect your future from being permanently stained.
