Misdemeanors in Missouri

Misdemeanors come in a wide variety of offenses, including disturbing the peace, drug possession (up to a specific weight), wrongful imprisonment and certain types of DUI offenses. The penalties for misdemeanor convictions include:


  • 15 days to one year in jail
  • $300 to $1,000 in fines (not including restitution for damage)
  • A criminal history that can harm your ability to find employment or housing


Even a seemingly minor offense can cause significant damage, so you should contact our attorneys as soon as you have been charged or believe you will be charged. ​​​​​​​

What You Need to Know

Felony offenses also stem from a broad range of offenses. These offenses include major drug crimes, fraud, voluntary and involuntary manslaughter, and rape. Felony offenses are given specific classifications (Class D through Class A), and the consequences of conviction change depending on the classification. An example of how severely these consequences vary is that Class D felonies can result in a maximum of five years in prison, while Class A felonies carry a minimum sentence of 10 years (and a maximum sentence of life).


This difference highlights the need for effective representation. Our felony defense attorneys not only fight for your interests but also understand the impact that getting a charge reduced to a lesser offense can have on you and your family.
