Aggressive, Strategy-Driven Theft Defense

Theft is typically defined as knowingly taking or controlling someone else’s property without their consent, often through deceit, extortion or fraud. Theft charges and penalties vary depending on the value of the property and circumstances involved. For example, if the accused has a prior conviction and the value of the stolen property is significant, the charge may be a felony.

When physical violence or the threat of violence is involved (such as with a weapon), the crime is considered robbery and conviction includes lengthy jail time. Certain theft crimes, such as mail fraud, are handled through the federal justice system.

Just because you are charged with theft does not mean you will be convicted. Our goal is to find ways to reduce the severity of the charges against you, ensuring any penalties are minimized.
