Theft, Fraud & Embezzlement
 Seattle Theft Defense Lawyer If you’ve been charged with, or are under investigation for, theft, fraud, or forgery, you need to take it seriously. Don't assume that a theft citation will be treated like a traffic citation. Theft has become a significant national problem and courts have responded swiftly with stiff new penalties and far-reaching consequences. Property crimes carry a stigma of dishonesty that will follow you the rest of your life. A conviction that shows up on a background check may prevent you from getting or renewing a professional license, a job, an apartment, a security clearance, or even entry into the military or college. Not to mention the possibility of substantial jail time, fines, or deportation if you’re not a citizen. Don’t make any assumptions about what will happen to you just because you have no criminal record; act promptly to protect your freedom. Please contact me immediately for your free initial consultation to discuss how we will fight your case. Most cases of theft require the government to prove criminal intent.

Examples of cases that I handle:
