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

- Bad checks
- Embezzlement
- Auto theft
- Misuse of public funds
- Robbery
- Burglary
