Do not make the mistake of taking shoplifting charges lightly. While shoplifting is a seemingly minor offense, it can have a significant impact on your future if not handled appropriately. A shoplifting conviction can impact employment options, professional licenses, college loan applications, apartment applications and many other things. Robert S. Travis works hard to defend against the charges and make the case go away.

Some lawyers will plea this type of case out, but it will be on your record and would be available for schools and colleges reviewing an application. In a world so information intensive, where anyone can get information on anyone else, these matters need to be dealt with early on and by an experienced shoplifting defense lawyer. Contact us at 404-354-3124 to schedule a free consultation and thorough case evaluation.

Because shoplifting is a misdemeanor offense, an inexperienced lawyer may convince a client that negotiating a plea agreement involving minimal probation will be their best option. However, even with only a single day of probation, the shoplifting conviction will remain on your permanent criminal record. Our criminal law attorneys work to get shoplifting and petty theft cases dismissed without court ordered supervision.
