Felony Defense Attorneys

Experienced Criminal Defense Attorney Defending Illinois Clients against Felonies Charges

A felony in Illinois is a criminal offense that is punishable by one year or more in the Illinois Department of Corrections and fines of $25,000.00 or more. All felony offenses are serious, but some are more severe than others.  The vast majority of felony offenses do offer at least the possibility of probation while others carry mandatory prison sentences upon conviction.  The difference between probation and a prison sentence often times comes down to the skill and expertise of the criminal defense lawyer. In Illinois, there are six classifications of felony offenses and charges:

Class 4 Felony: 1-3 years in the Illinois Department of Corrections

Class 3 Felony: 2-5 years in the Illinois Department of Corrections

Class 2 Felony: 3-7 years in the Illinois Department of Corrections

Class 1 Felony: 4-15 years in the Illinois Department of Corrections

Class X Felony: 6-30 years in the Illinois Department of Corrections

Murder: 20-60 years (or more) in the Illinois Department of Corrections
