Are You Facing Theft Or Burglary Charges?
Theft crimes are considered crimes of moral turpitude, a label that can haunt convicted individuals for years in employment, housing, immigration and other facets of life. Theft crimes may be charged as misdemeanors or felony offenses depending on the value of the property or services stolen, and whether the theft involved a weapon, a vehicle or any dangerous item.

Even Minor Charges Can Have Long-Term Consequences
One of the most common types of theft charges is shoplifting. The people who face this charge are often young people with no prior arrests or convictions, and they often make the mistake of not talking to an attorney right away.
Having any type of theft on your record has both legal and personal consequences. Employers, landlords, colleges, credit bureaus and others who conduct background checks will learn of your conviction. The consequences can be crippling.
