Legal Question in Criminal Law in New York

Re: 240.26 harassment second degree

The charge is a violation, not a crime. Nevertheless, its always better to have a lawyer defend your rights to make sure the DA does not take advantage of you. For example, if you decide to accept a plea, the DA may ask for community service or some type of program. Having a lawyer defend you will ensure that the DA does not overreach.

Having an attorney with you would greatly increase your chances of the charges being greatly reduced or even dismissed. This area of law is our specialty, however, we would need some more information before making a complete and proper determination. You are welcome to contact us for a free consultation.

No but you should. It can lead to all kinds of trouble not the least of which includes orders of protection fines and potentially jail.
