What is the Difference Between a Misdemeanor and Felony Crime?

The main difference between these two criminal offenses will be the severity of the penalties. Misdemeanor crimes are punishable for up to one (1) year imprisonment and up to $1,000.00 fine, whereas a felony crime is punishable by more than one (1) year imprisonment and more than $1,000.00 fine. If you have been charged with a misdemeanor or felony crime, be sure to contact a hard-hitting criminal lawyer without delay.

Humphrey has 30 years of experience in the general practice of law and has represented a large number of clients successfully in DUI and other criminal defense matters ranging from capital offenses to simple misdemeanors and traffic violations.

Testimonials

    "I knew you were the lawyer to represent my son."
    When my son, a school teacher, was charged with a felony I was in shock. I immediately found your website and, the way it was written, I knew you were the lawyer to represent my son. You immediately called me back and you were with our family every step of the way. We appreciate all of your hard work and your ability to have the case resolved so my son did not receive a criminal conviction. I would highly recommend you to any parent whose child has been charged with a criminal offense.

    "I highly recommend you to anyone"
    Attorney Humphrey I wish to thank you on behalf of my entire family for everything you did for my mother. When she was charged with a felony drug charge as part of a drunk driving offense, we knew it would have serious consequences for her ability to work in the healthcare profession. We cannot be more pleased with your ability to have the drug charge dismissed. You even had the traffic violations dismissed. I have told all my co-workers and friends about what you did for our family. I highly recommend you to anyone who needs an experienced and skilled attorney. Once again, thank you.

    "I would highly recommend you to anyone who needs an attorney."
    As a business owner, I was extremely concerned when I was charged by the Tiverton Police with drunk driving. My fiancé’s family had used your services in the past so she referred me to you. I was extremely pleased with the prompt attention you gave to my matter and the professional manner in which you resolved my case. I would highly recommend you to anyone who needs an attorney.

    "Words cannot express how grateful I am"

    Attorney Humphrey,

    I just wanted to extend my full thanks for everything you and your team have done to help me! Words cannot express how grateful I am to have had your support and what a pleasure it was to have you by my side representing me. I can tell you have gained much experience and wisdom, over the years, as an attorney and will be sure to recommend you to any one in need of services in the future.

    Thanks again!

    "After I hired Attorney Humphrey, I knew I made the right choice."
    I had another attorney, but my case was going nowhere. After I hired Attorney Humphrey, I knew I made the right choice. He was an exceptional attorney and his reputation among his fellow attorneys and the Court is evident. He was able to get my DUI amended to reckless driving without any license suspension.

    "Attorney Humphrey did a great job pursuing my claim and getting me a fair settlement."
    I was involved in a rear end car accident near Chili's in East Providence, which caused me to have to take several days off from work. Even when I returned to work, I often had to go home early because of pain. My injuries included a concussion and severe headaches for several months. Attorney Humphrey did a great job pursuing my claim and getting me a fair settlement.

    "call Attorney Robert H. Humphrey."
    When I received a letter from the Rhode Island Traffic Tribunal informing me that because of a recent RI State Police traffic ticket I needed to appear before the RITT because I could lose my license since this was my third traffic offense within twelve months I knew I needed a great lawyer. My Dad knew of Attorney Robert Humphrey’s reputation and he contacted him to represent me. Attorney Humphrey did a great job for me and in just one court appearance he got the case resolved and I did not lose my license. If you need a great attorney to represent you before the Rhode Island Traffic Tribunal, call Attorney Robert H. Humphrey.

    ""Bob is the MAN!""
    " Bob is the MAN!" My wife was denied entry into the United States because of a Providence police charge which was over a decade old. I needed an attorney that could do the impossible, resolving a criminal case without my wife, the defendant, being able to enter the country. Bob quickly and expertly got the charge against my wife dismissed and the warrant for her arrest cancelled. We were absolutely delighted by his representation and it has never been more truly said that we couldn't have done it without him. His sound counsel and prompt communication were a great comfort to my wife. I really felt in safe hands as we worked to this conclusion. If you have a Providence police charge or any criminal case in Rhode Island, "Bob is the MAN!"
