Theft Charges

Theft is a crime of moral turpitude. A conviction for theft can have negative effects for the rest of your life. Clients who are accused of shoplifting from a store will often receive a letter from a law firm saying they need to pay a fee because “they got caught stealing” from the store. People mistakenly assume that if they pay this fee the case will “go away.” It does not; the state will still prosecute the case. As with any criminal case, if you are accused of Theft, it is important to consult with an attorney before you respond to one of these letters or go to court. The way in which your case is resolved will also affect your right to an expunction or ability to seal your record. You cannot expunge a Deferred Adjudication.

Glynn was quick and to the point with us, and handled our case well. It ended up being dismissed which is a relief. He's reliable, and will get the job done. I'd recommend him to anyone who needs it.

Mr. Vrba is an outstanding attorney who assisted with how to handle an NTTA complaint. I spoke with him personally and he called me immediately. I hope to use him again in the future.

Mr Vrba has represented me on a speeding ticket from an officer who is notorious for being unscrupulous. Normally I would just pay the fine and be done, but Mr Vrba used his expertise and knowledge to get the ticket thrown out based on the circumstances. He knows his stuff and uses his resources...

Called about a traffic ticket issue. He gave me good advice and told me I didn't need to hire an attorney. I appreciate the honesty. It says a lot.
