Being a student at the University or any other Northeast Georgia College is a full-time job in itself. Then, if a student is convicted of a criminal offense, you not only have the normal legal issues to deal with, but as a student you must consider how your legal violation will affect your standing as a student. And it will. An arrest alone, and certainly a conviction, can have negative consequences on your academic standing. Although the policies vary somewhat from school to school, increasingly colleges want students to have academic as well as legal consequences for illegal behavior. In some cases, having a conviction on your academic record may prevent you from pursuing the career of your choice. We at the Lariscy Law Firm can provide advice for dealing with academic records at every college and University in North Georgia; we will provide you the best advice available based on years of experience and up-to-date knowledge of current policies. As a student, you may be unsuspecting about how an arrest or conviction can affect your college standing and your future.
We represent students from all colleges as well high schools on such criminal charges as:
. Fake Id
. Fraudulent document charges
. Underage alcohol charges such as minor in position or consumption of alcohol
. Possession of marijuana
. Public drunkenness
. Disorderly conduct
. Criminal trespass
. Criminal damage to property
. Driving while under the influence of alcohol or drugs
. Driving while license is suspended
. Multitude of local ordinance violation
While it is normally true that a first time misdemeanor offense for most criminal charges will not subject you to suspension or expulsion from school, it can happen. A repeat offense, while you may be on academic probation, can result in more serious consequences, including suspension or expulsion.
Our staff at The Lariscy Law Firm knows how to handle your criminal defense in the very best interests of your academics and future career. We know and understand that an indiscretion in college does not have to interrupt your education or potentially ruin your future career.
