At Carolyn Oliver Law Firm, we are committed to providing personalized, effective defense strategies for clients dealing with theft allegations and complex federal criminal charges in the San Diego area.
Understanding Theft Charges Lawyer in California
Theft crimes can range from minor shoplifting cases to high-stakes grand theft and embezzlement. Regardless of the severity, these charges carry serious consequences that can impact your life for years to come.
Common theft charges include:
- Petty Theft – Typically involves stolen property valued under $950.
- Grand Theft – Involves property valued over $950 or certain types of property regardless of value, such as automobiles or firearms.
- Burglary – Entering a building with the intent to commit theft or another felony.
- Robbery – Taking property from another person using force or intimidation.
- Embezzlement – Unlawfully taking funds or property entrusted to you, often in a workplace setting.
Even a misdemeanor theft charge can lead to jail time, fines, probation, and a permanent criminal record. A felony conviction may bring years of prison time and difficulty finding employment. At Carolyn Oliver Law Firm, we know how to challenge theft allegations, negotiate for reduced charges, and fight for dismissals whenever possible.
Why You Need a Federal Criminal Defense Lawyer
Facing charges in federal court is a completely different ball game than a typical state case. Federal crimes are investigated by powerful agencies like the FBI, DEA, or IRS, and prosecuted by U.S. Attorneys who have vast resources at their disposal. These cases often involve lengthy investigations, complex evidence, and mandatory minimum sentencing.
Federal charges may include:
- Wire Fraud and Mail Fraud
- Money Laundering
- Drug Trafficking
- White Collar Crimes (Securities Fraud, Tax Evasion, etc.)
- RICO Violations
- Cybercrime and Identity Theft
