Pittsburgh Theft Offense Lawyers

Theft is the illegal taking of another person's property without that person's freely-given consent and with the intent to deprive that person of their property. The severity of the penalty for a theft offense is based upon the value of the property taken and the circumstances of how it was taken. Many people who are facing criminal charges for theft are facing their first encounter with the criminal justice system in Pennsylvania. If you have been charged with shoplifting, writing a bad check, unauthorized use of an automobile or any other theft offense, you may not understand your rights.  You need an experienced criminal defense lawyer to explain and protect your rights.

I have a thorough understanding of theft crimes in Pennsylvania and will provide competent and aggressive defense to those charged with any type of theft, whether you are charged with shoplifting, misdemeanor theft or felony theft. I will review the type of theft charged, the value of the property alleged to be stolen, the alleged intent behind the act, as well as all possible defenses to the charges. Early and active involvement of a criminal defense attorney can make a big difference in theft charges filed against you.
