Portland Area Shoplifting and Theft Defense Lawyer
When most people think about shoplifting and retail theft, they think of a harmless offense that doesn't carry any real consequences. Under Oregon law, however, shoplifting is taken very seriously and the penalties can be quite severe. Penalties can vary greatly, depending upon such factors as how many times you have stolen before, what you stole, the value of the stolen merchandise, and a variety of other factors. While most theft convictions do not result in incarceration, under the right circumstances, you could be facing a jail or prison sentence.
If you are facing shoplifting charges, it is important that you contact an experienced criminal defense lawyer immediately. At the Hohbach Law Firm, LLC, located in Lake Oswego, we have experience handling all types of misdemeanor and felony shoplifting and other types of theft cases. We work diligently to see that your rights are protected and that you receive fair treatment under the law.
