Alabama lawyers help those charged with robbery, burglary and larceny

The Huntsville criminal defense attorneys at The Moore Firm, LLC work hard to defend those who have been accused of theft crimes. Our attorneys are experienced in defending against all types of criminal charges. We work with our clients to develop a defense strategy in order to reduce the likelihood of any possible punishments. We may negotiate with prosecutors to get our clients’ charges dropped or reduced. When that doesn’t work, we present a solid defense at trial.

Understanding Huntsville theft crime charges

There are a wide variety of criminal charges associated with theft. These charges vary by where the property was taken, how it was acquired, the value of the property and whether violence was involved. Theft is the taking of property. Depending on the value of the property, it may either be considered a misdemeanor or a felony. This type of charge is usually associated with crimes like shoplifting.  A charge of burglary is common in cases where someone is accused of breaking into a home or business. When someone takes money that they have been entrusted with, it is usually considered embezzlement. Each state’s laws are different and your Huntsville defense attorney will help you understand the charges against you.

Charges often become more serious when they are accompanied by an accusation of violence. Muggings and other crimes where property is taken directly from a person usually result in a charge of robbery or armed robbery. Our attorneys help clients build a defense against all types of theft charges.

Using a variety of tactics to defend our clients against theft charges

Those who have been charged with theft crimes in Alabama should not give up hope. Our attorneys will challenge every possible piece of evidence to avoid having it admitted to trial. We will oppose all possible motions by the prosecution and work to discredit witnesses who are called to testify against you. Our attorneys will challenge police procedure if your rights were violated during the investigation or your arrest. When possible, we will present evidence proving your alibi and showing that you did not commit the crime. When necessary, we will work with forensic experts to help discredit the prosecution’s case.

Defendants in theft cases often face the prospect of serious criminal punishment. They may be forced to pay restitution to the person they are accused of stealing from. Theft crimes often come with the threat of jail time or prison sentences. In cases where we cannot establish innocence, our experienced attorneys are able to get these charges and penalties reduced to probation.
