Williamson County Theft Lawyer

Representation in Georgetown & Round Rock, TX

The sentence that you could receive if you are convicted of a theft crime varies widely according to the specific details of the crime. For example, simple theft of the property of another person is not generally punished as severely as is a theft that is accomplished through the use of force or threats of violence. The value of stolen goods also plays a large role in determining what penalty you could receive.
