Consequences of a Theft Conviction
If you are convicted of theft, you may be sentenced to jail and be required to pay court costs and make restitution. You may also become ineligible for student financial aid and be barred from certain kinds of employment. It’s not worth it, so consult an attorney.
Our Clients — Not Always Criminals
Many of our clients are not acting as criminals. They are single mothers, college students, the unemployed and others who don’t realize the significance of a theft charge and conviction or may have misunderstood rules and regulations related to job or welfare benefits or financial aid. Frequently, our clients have had little experience with the criminal justice system, and they sometimes make the mistake of trying to represent themselves. They view the charges as minor. Please don’t make the same mistake — you could be convicted and sentenced in your first and only court appearance.
