If you have been accused of theft, it can be difficult to know who, if anyone, is on your side. The implication of theft alone can be enough to permanently tarnish your person’s reputation and career, and a conviction can carry a lengthy jail sentence and expensive fines. In times like these, it is crucial you retain the services of a hard-hitting advocate who can protect your best interests and unbiasedly defend your freedom. At The Law Office of Trace Milan, our San Luis Obispo theft crime attorney can provide the aggressive defense you need during this difficult time and pursue every opportunity to secure a reduction or dismissal of your charges on your behalf.

We have what it takes to take on the following cases:
The specific range of penalties for theft and larceny will vary depending on the severity of the alleged crime. Under California State Law, petty theft may be punished by as much as $1,000 in fines, up to six months in jail, or both. Felony sentencing is much more serious, carrying anywhere from three months to six years in prison. These penalties can increase if you have prior criminal convictions.
Criminal penalties such as jail time and fines are not the only potential consequences of a theft crime conviction. A theft-related criminal record can greatly harm your future employment options, as employers typically see applicants with histories of theft as being dishonest or having the potential to steal from their companies. Furthermore, most theft offenses in California are classified as “crimes of moral turpitude,” meaning that convictions of this nature can be used as a reason to deny you of certain licenses and certifications such as a nursing license, a contractor’s license, or a real estate license. If you are a foreign national currently living, studying, or working in the United States on a temporary basis, a conviction of a theft crime can also have an impact on your immigration status.
