We are all human. And as humans, we sometimes make mistakes that can adversely affect our lives. Embezzlement is one of those crimes that can have very serious ramifications.

There are extenuating circumstances involving embezzlement. A great deal depends upon how much you stole and if you have a criminal record of the same behavior. There are individuals who work at large companies and get accused of stealing hundreds of thousands or even millions of dollars. There are also individuals who steal much smaller amounts of money. Either way, it is wrong to embezzle. It doesn’t matter if it’s a penny. It’s not yours. But under the law, the dollar amount stolen can make a huge difference in you receiving probation or several years in prison.

Prosecutors can be overzealous. Sometimes, they may want to see you do many years in prison, regardless of the circumstances. Our firm will do our best to negotiate on your behalf. We will attempt to get you the lowest sentence possible under the law — even probation, if possible. We are fully committed to providing you the best possible defense.
