Know Your Defense Options
At The Law Office of Lesa Pamplin, P.C., we can build an aggressive and effective defense for your case to fight for your freedom and your reputation. One of the most common defenses against theft charges is to argue the element of specific intent. Essentially, this means that you had other, lawful intentions in mind when you committed the alleged offense. Another common defense that is used for charges of possession of stolen property is ignorance, whereby you did not know that the property was stolen. These defenses are hard to prove and require a competent and aggressive criminal attorney who knows what it takes to win cases.
