You are not alone
We've walked people through this since 1983.
A theft charge can come from a misunderstanding, a bad moment, or a wrong assumption. Whatever brought you here, an employer sees the word "theft" and stops reading. We work to keep that from defining you.
What's at stake
The next moves matter.
Penalties range from fines to jail, and a theft conviction reads as dishonesty on every background check. That's why the details of the case, and the alternatives to a conviction, matter so much.
How we defend it
The defense we build for you.
- We analyze every detail for gaps in the prosecution's proof.
- We challenge intent, ownership, and the value alleged.
- We pursue diversion, restitution deals, and alternatives to a conviction.
- We fight to protect your record and your job prospects.

Questions clients ask.
What's the difference between petty and grand theft?
It usually comes down to the value involved. That line changes how the case is charged and what you’re facing. We’ll explain where yours lands.
Can a theft charge be kept off my record?
Sometimes, through diversion or a reduced plea. We push for the cleanest outcome the facts allow.
