If you have been charged with petty theft, you should know from the outset that there is nothing "petty" about the charge in terms of the consequences you may be facing. In fact, certain circumstances (including the value of the property you are accused of stealing, or a prior relevant conviction) may exacerbate your punishment.

But it's just my first offense...it's no big deal? The biggest mistake you can make do is to take this lightly because:

• You will have a criminal record that may have consequences for years to come. A petty theft charge on a job application or professional license could result in denial of the job.
• Consider the nature of a petty theft conviction, which means dishonesty. A conviction could be like having the word "THIEF" on your forehead when you apply for a job or a professional license.

We will do everything possible to minimize the charges and the consequences of a petty theft charge.

Conviction for a crime of any type can have serious, life-changing consequences. With so much at stake, you can trust us to vigorously defend you.
