Criminal law, or penal law, is the bodies of rules with the potential for severe impositions as punishment for failure to comply. Criminal punishment, depending on the offense and jurisdiction, may include execution, loss of liberty, government supervision (parole or probation), or fines. There are some archetypal crimes, like murder, but the acts that are forbidden are not wholly consistent between different criminal codes, and even within a particular code lines may be blurred as civil infractions may give rise also to criminal consequences. Criminal law typically is enforced by the government, unlike the civil law, which may be enforced by private parties.
>> Five objectives are widely accepted for enforcement of the criminal law by punishments:
# retribution,
# deterrence,
# incapacitation,
# rehabilitation and
# restitution.
Jurisdictions differ on the value to be placed on each.

Re: Criminal law, or penal law
Criminal defense lawyers will almost always charge by the hour, or by a flat fee that is payable up front. Rules of professional conduct for your state quite likely prohibit a lawyer from entering into a contingent fee agreement for a criminal action. Rates can be competitive so it may be to your benefit to shop around. However, lawyers with a good reputation in this area are going to charge more. With your freedom possibly on the line, it may be worthwhile to pay more for a lawyer or a law firm with a great reputation.

Employment Related Law
Employment Related Law aims to protect employees from unfair practices and make staff and employers clear about their rights and responsibilities – and that remains a priority. But when regulation becomes over complicated and restrictive it can have the opposite effect and make it difficult for business to create new jobs.

Re: Employment Related Law
I find that study, or reference books, often use differenent terms meaning the same thing. I imagine that if there is a distinction, then criminal law will relate to what constitutes a crime, and penal law relates to the punishment for a crime.
