Why Hire Us to Defend You After Being Charged with Shoplifting?
Potential clients often ask us questions such as the following before deciding to hire us as criminal defense attorneys:
- Can I trust you?
- Are your fees reasonable?
- Do you focus solely on criminal defense?
The answers to these questions are "yes" according to our past clients. In fact, criminal defense is all that we do — and we take every case seriously, since we know that the outcomes will be of great consequence to our clients. A conviction versus probation versus case dismissed can mean all the difference to our clients' futures.
- Perhaps you were distracted by your children while shopping, and did not realize that you were walking out with a piece of clothing on that you had tried on but had neglected to pay for.
- Perhaps you had not even left the store, but had impulsively stuck an item in your pocket while shopping — not intending to steal it, but you were questioned on alleged intentions to steal.
- Perhaps you forgot to pay for the gasoline although you did pay for the hotdog at a convenience store.
- Perhaps you knowingly did steal food in order to feed your children, out of desperation.
Circumstances and opportunities vary greatly for people charged with shoplifting and other forms of stealing. Contacting a knowledgeable defense attorney is the first step toward a favorable outcome.
