If you have been charged with theft, the police may be pressuring you for a statement. Always remember that you have the right to an attorney and that you are not required to speak to anyone, including police officers, about the theft charge.
Criminal Defense Against Shoplifting & Burglary
Know your rights: you have the right to remain silent and the right to an attorney. You will not be penalized for consulting with a lawyer prior to making a statement. For aggressive criminal defense representation, contact Christian A. Schwaner, P.C., in Colorado Springs, at 719-387-0616. Your first consultation will be free of charge.
A Former Prosecutor Turned Defense Attorney
As a former prosecutor in El Paso and Teller county, I have firsthand knowledge of the prosecution's tactics and will use my valuable experience in defending you against a theft charge. I will carefully review your charges, investigate the circumstances of your case, and begin working to develop an effective defense strategy.
Theft Charges Can Affect Your Future
A theft charge can have serious effects on your future. If the prosecution claims you unlawfully took more than $500, you may be facing a felony charge. However, even misdemeanor theft charges stay on your record and may impact your ability to get a job in the future. If you have been charged with any of the following theft crimes, I can help defend you:
- Burglary
- Auto theft
- Robbery
- Shoplifting
- Fraud
I have more than 10 years of experience as an attorney in Colorado Springs and I am dedicated to providing each client with a high level of personal attention, no matter how big or small a case may be. To speak with an experienced attorney in a free consultation, call Christian A. Schwaner, P.C., at 719-387-0616 or contact me online.
