Theft

Theft can cover a large number of offences from a minor low value shoplifting to long-term misappropriation. If you are accused of theft, not only could your reputation be at stake but also your liberty.

A conviction for an offence involving dishonesty can seriously hinder future opportunities in the job market. Legal representation from experts with many years experience in all types of theft cases is therefore crucial.

Theft is an imprisonable offence and can be dealt with in the Magistrates Court but the more serious cases proceed to the Crown Court.

We have successfully defended many clients at the Police Station, Magistrates Court and Crown Court, including an allegation of sustained theft from an employer totaling in excess £100,000.

If you are suspected of theft of any description and are to be interviewed by the police, you are entitled to have a solicitor present free of charge at any police interview. This is true for what may seem to be the most trivial offences, e.g. a minor shop theft. You should never be interviewed without legal representation.

Even if you have been interviewed already with or without a solicitor present, or due to be interviewed, then contact us so we can discuss how to help.

If proceedings have already commenced or you even believe they are contemplated, we can help.
