Shoplifting Defense Lawyers Aggressively Fighting For You

Many people are unaware of the serious penalties of shoplifting. They shoplift because of an error in judgment, youthful indiscretion or simple boredom. Some shoplift because of more serious underlying problems; others are simply wrongly accused.

Regardless of your situation, one thing is true: If you have been arrested for shoplifting, you should work with an experienced shoplifting defense lawyer – like the attorneys at Sutnick & Sutnick Attorneys at Law – who can protect your interests. Call anytime, day or night, for a FREE CONSULTATION.

Shoplifting Charges

In New Jersey, the penalty for shoplifting and other types of theft charges depends on the amount of money or value of items alleged to have been stolen. If the value is less than $200, the case is handled in Municipal Court. Cases for all other amounts are prosecuted by the county prosecutor in Superior Court. Penalties can include jail, probation and community service.

Our shoplifting defense lawyers aggressively defend adults and juveniles against shoplifting charges by using all legal tools and strategies available under the law. Let our law firm determine if you are eligible for a diversionary program which will eventually permit the judge to dismiss your case. Let us see if we can reduce the charges. Let us challenge the evidence and charges at trial.

Why Your Choice Of Shoplifting Defense Lawyer Matters

Having the right defense lawyer for your case is important, because an experienced shoplifting attorney may be able to help you:

  • Reduce or dismiss charges
  • Avoid jail time
  • Minimize costly fines and penalties
  • Keep your job
  • Protect your reputation

The Representation That Is Right For You

Our law firm combines the work of experienced attorneys who are former prosecutors. Although we now focus exclusively on criminal defense, our past experience gives us an inside perspective on how prosecutors build their cases.

We fight for our clients, but we understand that a win means different things to different people. Sometimes it means a quick settlement that minimizes the effects of a criminal charge. Other times, it means taking your case to trial to prove your innocence. We analyze the law and facts of the case. Our lawyers take time to talk with you about the effect of a shoplifting charge on your life, family and job. Together, we will develop a strategy that helps you achieve the results that are best for you.
