Newburgh Theft Crimes Lawyer
You may not think of shoplifting as a major crime. Although the legal penalties for shoplifting may not be as serious as other crimes, a conviction on shoplifting, petit larceny or other forms of theft will cause lasting damage to your standing in the community. Employers place a high value in honesty of their employees. If you have to answer "yes" when employers ask whether you have been convicted of a theft crime, you may miss out on a number of potential employment opportunities.
At Wolfe Law Firm, P.C., we have represented numerous people charged with shoplifting and other forms of theft, including employee theft. We will explore every opportunity to reduce or dismiss your charges. Contact us today.
Seeking Alternate Methods of Punishment
Because the consequences of even a seemingly minor theft charge are so high, our law firm will do everything we can to minimize the potential consequences. On a first offense, we may be able to enlist you in an online course. If you complete the course satisfactorily, your case may be Adjourned Contemplating Dismissal (ACD). Specifically, this means if you avoid legal troubles for six months, your case will be dismissed. In other cases, restitution may be a possibility. If restitution is not a viable option to resolve your charges, we will explore all available options to you.
