Defense Against Felony Offenses

The Offenses Our Felony Attorneys Handle

Felony offenses in Pennsylvania fall into three categories based on their perceived level of severity:

• Felony 1 (F1) charges: These charges carry the stiffest potential penalties and jail terms. Examples of F1 charges we can defend you against include rape, arson, kidnapping and some gun-related allegations.
• Felony 2 (F2) charges: These charges rank as mid-level in severity and carry shorter potential prison sentences and lower fines than F1 charges. Our team provides competent and experienced defense representation against charges like statutory sexual assault, burglary, theft of property and aggravated assault.
• Felony 3 (F3) charges: These allegations have the lowest potential fines and shortest jail terms among felonies. Examples of F3s we can defend include carrying a firearm without a license, bribery, identity theft and stalking.

Murder is considered the highest level of crime and has its own designation within a separate section under Title 18 of the Pennsylvania Code, making it more severe than F1 penalties.

Driving while under the influence (DUI) charges can become felonious depending on the number of previous convictions, specific blood alcohol levels and situations involving severe injuries or death. Buzgon Davis Law Offices has experience defending against these charges as well.
