Protecting Your Rights And Reputation Against Theft Charges
Theft charges can carry a heavy personal weight, but an allegation does not have to define your character or determine your future. At the Law Offices of Peter G. Aziz & Associates LLC, we take a detailed, hands-on approach to analyzing the state’s evidence.
Security footage or witness statements rarely tell the full story. Our role is to look beyond initial assumptions – identifying potential rights violations and challenging weak claims to protect your future.
Comprehensive Defense Across All Types Of Theft Charges
If you are charged with theft, your future penalties include fines, imprisonment or both. Theft is categorized in the second, third or fourth degree and includes:
- Shoplifting, petty theft, grand theft
- Auto theft
- Theft of services
- Theft by deception
- Receiving stolen property
Evidence gathered from theft cases can be tough to counter. For example, store owners provide evidence obtained through store cameras, their loss prevention or security staff members, or other witnesses.
An experienced theft defense lawyer can negotiate using the advantages of prison alternatives, including counseling and probation.
How Our Attorneys Advocate For You
At the Law Offices of Peter G. Aziz & Associates LLC, we have worked with countless clients facing theft charges. We use our experience in negotiation and courtroom tactics to create a custom defense strategy for each of our clients.
Many people assume a theft charge cannot be challenged if security staff or video footage is involved. However, the police may have violated your rights, such as arresting you without a warrant, or the video surveillance may not be clear enough to provide evidence beyond a reasonable doubt against you. We step in to protect your rights and give you every opportunity to challenge the charges.
