About Theft in Orange County, California
Theft is an offense that involves taking another's property or money, with the intent of permanently depriving them of it. Theft may be committed by way of force or deceit or may be committed without the victim being present or being aware of the situation. For example, a person may commit theft by holding a person at gunpoint and taking their wallet. A non-violent example may be an offender who tricks an elderly person into giving him or her money for a fraudulent investment.
No matter what type of theft charges you are facing, talking to an Orange County theft defense attorney about your options is crucial. Penalties for theft crimes may range from a small fine or restitution all the way to years in state prison and fines in the millions of dollars.
