Theft and Property Crimes Defense

Charged with Theft or a Property Crime? I’m Here to Protect Your Rights Under California Law.

Facing charges related to theft or property crimes in California can be overwhelming and intimidating. Whether you’re accused of shoplifting, burglary, grand theft, or vandalism, these charges carry serious consequences that can affect your future. I’m dedicated to providing a robust defense that addresses the complexities of California’s laws and works toward achieving the best possible outcome for your case.

What I Offer:

  • Comprehensive Defense for All Theft and Property Crimes: I handle a wide range of theft and property-related charges, including:

    • Petty Theft: Often involving the theft of property valued under $950, petty theft charges can still result in significant penalties, especially for repeat offenders. I’ll work to reduce or dismiss the charges by challenging the evidence or negotiating alternative resolutions.
    • Shoplifting: Under California’s Prop 47, shoplifting is charged as a misdemeanor if the value of stolen goods is under $950. I’ll explore defenses like lack of intent or mistaken identity to protect your record.
    • Grand Theft: For theft involving property valued over $950, grand theft can be charged as a felony. I’ll scrutinize the details of your case to challenge the prosecution’s evidence and seek to reduce the charge or minimize the penalties.
    • Burglary: Whether charged with residential or commercial burglary, these serious accusations require a strategic defense. I’ll examine whether the alleged entry was unlawful and whether intent can be proven beyond a reasonable doubt.
    • Vandalism: Vandalism charges, especially those involving significant property damage, can carry harsh penalties. I’ll work to demonstrate mitigating factors or negotiate alternative sentencing, such as community service or restitution.
  • Navigating California’s Complex Theft Laws: California’s theft and property crime laws are intricate, with penalties that vary depending on the value of the property, prior convictions, and the circumstances of the crime. I’ll guide you through these legal complexities, ensuring that your rights are protected and that you fully understand your legal options.

  • Minimizing Penalties: My primary goal is to minimize the impact of these charges on your life. Whether that means negotiating a plea deal, seeking alternative sentencing options like diversion programs, or fighting for a complete dismissal, I’ll work tirelessly to achieve the best possible result.
