Defending Clients Against a Wide Range of Property Crimes

Some of the theft and property charges I have defended clients against include:

• Residential burglaries and commercial burglaries
• Petty theft and grand theft
• Robbery
• Vandalism
• Unlawful taking or driving of a vehicle
• Shoplifting
• Trespassing
• Embezzlement
• Fraud, forgery, and/or identity theft
• Welfare fraud
• Passing bad checks

Understanding the Difference Between Felony and Misdemeanor Charges

Conviction on a felony crime could possibly result in a prison commitment while misdemeanor crimes are punishable by jail, fines and probation.

Theft and property crimes result in felony charges when:

• The stolen property or damage is worth more than $400
• The offender has previous convictions
• Violence occurs
• The crime was part of a conspiracy
• The crime is believed to be gang related

Whether you are facing felony or misdemeanor charges, I will work aggressively to keep your record clean. If you have previously been convicted of a felony or misdemeanor I can assist you in pursuing an expungement. Contact me by calling 805-351-3794 to schedule a free initial consultation and discuss the details of your case with a knowledgeable, skilled criminal defense attorney. I offer flexible scheduling.
