Defending Against Theft Charges

All theft allegations are serious. Whether you have been accused of shoplifting a candy bar or are facing felony theft-related charges, you need help from a criminal defense lawyer who understands how to help you protect your rights. I am attorney Timothy J. Hennessy and I defend people throughout the Buffalo area who have been charged with theft. I understand how to challenge the evidence against you, and I will fight to help minimize the potential consequences of a criminal charge.

I Handle All Theft Cases

“Theft” is a broad term that encompasses a wide range of criminal charges involving the taking of another person’s property. I provide legal counsel to people who have been accused of all types of theft crimes, including:

• Shoplifting and retail theft
• Pickpocketing
• Robbery
• Burglary

A crime of theft may be charged as either a misdemeanor or a felony, depending on the value of the merchandise that was allegedly stolen, whether a weapon was involved and other factors. Regardless of the type of charge you are facing, a conviction will result in a criminal record that will follow you for life. This can make it difficult to find employment and housing. When your future is at stake, I am here to help you assert your legal rights.
