The California criminal defense lawyers<\/strong> at the Law Offices of Marc Grossman<\/a> bring decades of experience defending clients against theft and related charges throughout Los Angeles, San Bernardino, Ventura, Orange, and Riverside Counties.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Most people who get caught up in theft charges a normal, good citizens who slipped in a moment of weakness or made a thoughtless mistake. Everyone deserves a second chance and certainly not the permanent stain on your good name that a conviction or jail time brings. Additionally, there are those who are completely innocent who can also get caught up in theft charges because of misidentification by a witness or circumstances that look suspicious.<\/p>\n Our California theft crimes attorneys<\/strong> succeed in getting charges dismissed or reduced in crimes including Petty Theft, Identity Theft, Grand Theft, Appropriation of Lost Property, Burglary, Receiving Stolen Property, Grand Theft Auto, Auto Burglary, Grand Theft Firearm, and Embezzlement.<\/p>\n A California theft or related charge must be fought because convictions are especially damaging when it comes to finding a job, applying for some government benefits, and getting a state professional license. Even if your theft conviction is expunged, it will show up on background checks. Companies prefer to stay away from job applicants who have theft convictions due to public opinion that they are untrustworthy and fear that they may steal from them.<\/p>\n Also, most California theft crimes count as “crimes of moral turpitude.” A crime of moral turpitude is one that the state can cite to justify denial of a professional certification or license. These include contractor’s licenses, real estate licenses, and nursing licenses. Crimes of moral turpitude also cause problems for immigrants applying for naturalization, green cards, or visas.<\/p>\nProposition 47<\/h2>\n
