With the lifelong ramifications of a theft conviction it is important that your Texas Criminal Defense Lawyer has experience fighting the theft allegation.  We will collect all the evidence and investigate all the facts surrounding the allegations.  It is important to determine if the case can be won through a trial or a motion to suppress.  If a trial or motion to suppress will not be successful we need to formulate an argument that will persuade the prosecution to dismiss the case or offer an agreement that will allow the accused to maintain a clean record.

In a notable case our client was arrested for a theft from a large department store chain.  We filed and had court hearings on the unreasonable nature of our client’s detention and arrest.  The case against our client was dismissed after the hearing.  We then filed a lawsuit against the corporation (store) for the illegal arrest of our client.  The case was settled for a confidential amount.
