Serious consequences result from a theft conviction, regardless of the value of the item supposedly stolen. While petty theft ranges from less than $100 to less than $300, the penalties include up to a year in jail. In addition, the criminal record could prevent pursuit of employment or sideline a promising career.

With freedom and a future at stake, you need an aggressive attorney at The Umansky Law Firm committed to minimize the consequences you face following an arrest for petty theft.

A conviction of petty theft could result in up to one year in jail and a fine of $1,000 for a first-degree misdemeanor. With that in mind, we provide personalized representation and focus on the specifics of your theft case. In many cases, a first-time offense can be resolved through community service, probation, and restitution. In addition, avoiding future legal trouble could result in a sealing of your record or expungement of the criminal charge.

Keeping your record clean is vital in a job search. Many employers will ask about a criminal record. Knowing that a theft charge or conviction is on your record forces you to answer "yes." While honest, your admission could lead to a rejection of your application, particularly if the position applied for involves a license.
