Burglary, Shoplifting, Petty Theft, Grand Theft and other Theft Crimes
A theft is simply the taking of another's property without permission. Have you been accused of committing a crime of theft and arrested? This can be an embarrassing experience which can leave a person uncertain and anxious about the future. Even a theft involving an item of small value is a serious matter. The courts take theft crimes seriously. Prosecutors are interested in gaining convictions and generally push for the maximum penalties. Don't face this alone. An Overland Park criminal defense attorney at our firm works to resolve these charges and gain a positive outcome.
Theft Crime Lawyer in Overland Park
A theft of money or possessions valued at less than $1,000 is typically a misdemeanor; an amount greater than $1,000 is charged as a felony. When the accused has a prior theft conviction, the penalties can be more serious. Criminal defense of theft allegations can involve complex issues and, depending upon the circumstances, an effective defense strategy can differ greatly from one case to the next.
Theft includes a wide variety of offenses including:
- Shoplifting
- Fraud
- Bad checks
- Embezzlement
- Auto theft
- Misuse of public funds
- Robbery
- Burglary
- Petty theft
- Grand theft

"He Is Very Adept at Guiding You to the Very Best Scenario for Your Particular Situation"I highly recommend Mr. Gigstad for your legal needs. He is very adept at guiding you to the very best scenario for your particular situation. He helped my husband and I with a case that would have required us to travel to Kansas had we not hired him. He made it possible for us to stay here in Florida as he went to all of our court appearances, negotiated so we would receive the lightest possible court penalties, including negotiating for the lowest fine that the court would accept. As a bonus, Mr. Gigstad is extremely reasonable! If you would like to get the best outcome for your case, hire Mr. Gigstad!Lindy
