Types of Theft Crimes We Handle

Our firm handles all types of theft crime cases, which can generally be classified in two main categories: petty theft and grand theft.

• Petty Theft – Petty theft involves theft of property that is not valued over a certain amount. Since the passing of California Proposition 47, theft crimes of property valued at less than $900 are usually considered theft crimes. However, aggravating circumstances could lead to these crimes being charges as felonies.
• Grand Theft – Grand theft involves cases where property stolen is valued at a significant amount, usually more than $900.

Other common theft crime charges our firm can handle include:

• Shoplifting
• Burglary
• Auto theft
• White collar crimes
• Fraud offenses
• Robbery
• Receiving stolen property
