Theft Crimes

If you’ve recently been charged with a theft offense, it’s important that you take your charge seriously. Even though misdemeanor charges generally don’t carry the same harsh penalties as felonies, these offenses can still result in jail time if you’re convicted. That’s why when you’re charged with a misdemeanor, you need a lawyer to handle your case.

At Burgess and Burgess, a misdemeanor lawyer can assist you in a number of ways.  In some cases, our law firm can negotiate lesser charges or minimum sentencing with prosecutors.  We can also investigate your case to discover the truth and argue your case in court if necessary.

Keep in mind that if you’re convicted of a misdemeanor charge, you could be subjected to a hefty fine, community service, or even time in jail.  With the penalties threatening your quality of life, it’s important to take appropriate legal action by enlisting the help of a criminal defense attorney.

Contact our legal offices right away if you’ve been charged with a misdemeanor offense.  We’ll take the time to review your case, inform you of your rights, and provide you with much-needed support during this troubling time.
