Theft crimes include a variety of offenses: violent, non-violent and those involving fraud. Some examples of non-violent theft crimes may include shoplifting, grand theft auto, and petty theft. Robbery, carjacking and burglary are forms of violent theft crimes. Embezzlement, identity theft and fraud are all forms of theft committed by way of deceit. Depending upon the value of property taken or the amount of money obtained from a victim, a defendant may face petty theft or grand theft charges. The penalties a defendant may face will vary depending upon the value of the property or amount of money stolen, the offense itself, whether the defendant used or was in possession of a weapon, and whether a victim or victims suffered any injury.

Sometimes a person is accused of theft because of an innocent mistake. You may absentmindedly or accidentally place or drop an item into your pocket, purse or may simply walk out of the store with it. You may be wrongfully accused based off mistaken identity. Whatever the situation, a lawyer experienced in defending theft crime charges can review your case and determine how to best represent your interests.
