Costa Mesa Criminal Defense Attorney
Are you facing criminal charges in Costa Mesa?
Have you recently been arrested or are you currently under investigation for a crime? If your answer is yes to either question, then you have a lot to be concerned about. California has one of the harshest criminal justice systems in the nation, especially due to California's "three strikes" law. Any arrest can lead to a criminal conviction and this is not a good thing. Once you obtain a criminal record, even for a minor misdemeanor, then simple things you once took for granted become exceedingly difficult.
A criminal record makes it difficult to obtain employment, housing, educational loans and certain professional licenses and this becomes a problem for the rest of your life. If you are facing any type of criminal charges, please take a moment to contact Costa Mesa criminal defense attorney Scott D. Hughes to discuss your case.
