Animal Abuse

Albany Criminal Defense Lawyer Handling Cases Involving the Mistreatment or Abuse of Animals

Whatever the circumstances were that led to accusations against you on grounds of animal cruelty, you are right to be seeking a lawyer to advise and represent you. The charges may be false, or exaggerated. You may believe that the actions that led to the investigation and arrest do not amount to criminal offenses.

Regardless of your intentions or others’ misperceptions, a conviction after an arrest for animal cruelty will leave you with a permanent criminal record. There may be fines and penalties. You may be sentenced to jail or prison time. Your professional license (if you are a doctor, teacher, lawyer or healthcare worker, for example) may be at risk.

Seek experienced legal counsel to pursue the most promising path forward after you have been accused, arrested and/or charged with any criminal offenses regarding animal cruelty.
