Denton County, Texas Theft Crimes and Shoplifting Lawyer
At the Law Office of Kimberly Griffin Tucker, located in Plano, Texas, Mrs. Tucker defends the rights of her clients and strives to achieve the best possible outcome in their theft related crimes cases, such as theft by check, issuance of a bad check, employee theft, breaking and entering, possession of stolen property, larceny, embezzlement, robbery and shoplifting.
The tragedy is that sometimes these cases occur due to mere oversight, like a mother who was dealing with a crying child and became distracted to the point she accidentally left the store with an unpaid item. Whether the theft was accidental or a one-time, deliberate act, the State of Texas considers theft a crime of moral turpitude. No matter what the value of the item or items are that were allegedly stolen, a theft conviction can have many long-term implications: diminished job opportunities, inability to work at your child's school or even participate in school sponsored activities or prevent you from being able to rent certain property.
That is why Mrs. Tucker cautions, "Don't underestimate the severity of these charges."
Attorney Kimberly Griffin Tucker has a thorough knowledge of programs in Denton County and Dallas County which present alternatives to jail and lifelong criminal records. Pretrial diversion programs and out of court probation may provide clients with the opportunity to have their case dismissed and record expunged if they meet various requirements and standards. Attorneys who are not based in these counties are often unaware of the existence of such programs.
