Definition: Carjacking is the stealing of a car while it is occupied.
Consequences: Carjacking is a crime that can easily be attached to other felony charges. For example,
if when the carjacking was occurring and there was a child in the carjacking,
it may be possible that you can be also charged with kidnapping as well
as carjacking. There are many situations including the
one just mention above that the penalties for carjacking may be increased and if convicted the penalties you may face are prison
time, monetary fines, or the death penalty.
What a Lawyer can do for you: If you have been charged with carjacking and may be also
facing other felony charged attached with the carjacking,
you need a criminal defense attorney at your side. A criminal defense
attorney familiar with carjacking charges can
help you reduce the charges against you and possibly get you out of facing
many years in prison.
