Theft Crimes Lawyer in Charlotte County, Florida
Theft is a crime committed by a person who knowingly obtains or sets out to obtain property that belongs to someone else with the intent of depriving them of this property. Theft is a very serious criminal offense in the state of Florida and is punishable by jail or prison time, dependent upon a person’s prior criminal record and the value of the item(s) stolen.
If the property that a person steals has a value at or beyond $300, it is considered to be a felony offense and will be charged as grand theft. If property is valued below $300, then a person will only be charged with petty theft, also known as petit theft which is a
misdemeanor offense. In an effort to avoid a conviction, a person should hire a knowledgeable Punta Gorda theft crime attorney immediately after being arrested or investigated for this offense.
