Collateral Consequences of a Criminal Conviction

In addition to direct criminal consequences such as fines, jail time, a prison sentence or probation, a criminal conviction often results in a number of "collateral consequences." The collateral consequences of a criminal conviction are not sanctions imposed by a judge, but rather are simply negative results that flow from the criminal conviction. Collateral consequences vary widely depending on the type of crime involved and circumstances of a case. Examples of collateral consequences include:

  • Administrative driver license suspension or revocationfinger printed
  • Adverse employment consequences including suspensions and job loss
  • Denial of professional or occupational license
  • Deportation or exclusion of non-citizens and related immigration concerns
  • Disciplinary proceedings including suspension and expulsion hearings
  • Loss of civil rights including the right to vote and right to possess firearms
  • Loss of government contract work, debarment, and security clearance
  • Loss of educational opportunities or student financial aid
  • Revocation or suspension of a professional license or occupational license
  • School honor code violations

Drug Trafficking & Drug Possession

Drug & Narcotic Offenses  are one of the most widely prosecuted crimes in Colorado and Wyoming state and federal courts.

  • Cocaine and crack cocaine
  • Criminal conspiracies
  • Drug cultivation and drug manufacturing
  • Drug trafficking, transportation, and importation
  • Heroin possession and sales
