Annapolis, Maryland, Theft Charges Lawyers

The consequences of pleading guilty to a theft charge are much more serious than a fine and possible jail time. Maryland has a criminal case website that employers often use to find out if a prospective employee has a criminal history. If you have a theft conviction, few employers would consider hiring you over someone who has a clean record.

The criminal defense attorneys at Murphy & Price, LLP, have extensive experience prosecuting and defending people charged with theft crimes, such as:

  • Shoplifting
  • Credit card theft
  • Burglary
  • Robbery
  • Forgery
  • Writing bad checks
  • Embezzlement
  • Bank fraud and other white collar crimes

If you have been arrested on a theft charge, call us at 410-777-8723 for a free initial consultation before you talk to the police. There are many things a lawyer can do in a theft case to help you to avoid or mitigate charges.

Our primary goal as legal counsel in a theft case is to look for a winning defense. Can the state prove the charges against you? That can be a difficult thing for the state to do.

If the state has a strong case, we will look at steps that can minimize the consequences if you are found guilty. There are treatment programs for shoplifters, and enrolling in such a program can sometimes cause the state to elect not to prosecute you. In an employee embezzlement case, restitution can be a big factor in obtaining a suspended sentence or no jail time.
