401-823-9200

Under Rhode Island laws, a felony offense is any criminal offense punishable by more than one year in prison. A person convicted of a felony offense also faces many barricades in everyday life, from difficulty getting a job to the potential loss of your right to vote! Felonies are serious offenses in Rhode Island that can have devastating consequences for your future. If you have been accused of a felony offense in Rhode Island, it is vital that you have a criminal defense attorney who has felony trial experience and regularly handles felony-level cases.

All felonies are tried in the Superior Court through a trial by jury or, if you choose, a trial before a justice of the Superior Court sitting without a jury. There are many lawyers out there, practicing in criminal law, who have never tried a case before a jury. Don't get stuck with a lawyer like that as your defense attorney in the Superior Court. You need a lawyer experienced in picking a jury, talking to jurors, and one that is comfortable arguing your case before a jury. Also, experienced felony-level criminal defense attorneys usually have long-standing relationships with the prosecutors that can yield better results for your case.
