Hire a Team with a Track Record of Results
Theft crimes include several different offenses. They are crimes in which an individual is intentionally deprived of property by another without that individual's consent. A theft crime may be charged as a misdemeanor or a felony depending upon the value of the stolen items, and/or if a weapon was used during the commission of the crime. If someone has been convicted of theft, it may be very difficult for that individual to apply for employment, keep a good job, get a mortgage, rent an apartment, secure credit or obtain a professional license.

Possible Defenses in Theft Crimes Cases
In matters involving theft, the prosecution must prove beyond a reasonable doubt that the accused committed the offense.
Depending on the circumstances, several defenses may be raised to cast doubt on the evidence, including, but not limited to:
- The defendant was with another who actually committed the theft but was unaware the offense occurred.
- In a shoplifting case, the defendant may have left a store and accidentally forgot to pay for the merchandise.
- The defendant may be in possession of stolen property but was unaware that it was illegally obtained.
