Theft Attorneys in Palm Beach, Florida

In Florida, a person commits a theft when they knowingly obtain or use, or endeavor to obtain or to use, the property of another with intent to, either temporarily or permanently deprive them of it. Notice that it can be either temporary or permanent. The most common theft charges are Petit Theft, Retail Theft (shoplifting), and Grand Theft. Grand Theft is for property or money valued at $750 or more; however, the levels of seriousness go up with the amount.

Thefts are also crimes of dishonesty. Crimes of dishonesty can have serious consequences for your future; more so than other types of crimes. The reason is it calls into question your trustworthiness. For example, can a potential employer trust you with money and merchandise, or can you be trusted to pay your rent on time, etc. Moreover, crimes of dishonesty can negatively affect your immigration status.
