Montgomery County Theft Crime Defense
Montgomery County Criminal Attorney James Sullivan represents clients on misdemeanor and felony theft offenses in Conroe and the surrounding counties. Theft of any amount is a very serious crime. It is a crime of moral turpitude (dishonesty) and a conviction for theft can negatively affect you for the rest of your life. You really cannot afford a conviction for theft on your record.
Each year, hundreds of people contact Montgomery County Theft Crime Attorney James Sullivan in order to get their theft convictions expunged from their record because they cannot get a job, but unfortunately a theft conviction cannot be expunged or sealed (non-disclosed). Young people especially may not know about or consider the far-reaching effects of having a theft conviction on their record. Attorney James Sullivan can discuss with you the possible options in order to later get your criminal case sealed or expunged.

A person commits theft if he unlawfully takes another person’s property without their consent and with the intent to deprive the owner of the property [Texas Penal Code Sec. 31.03]. Obviously, if he did not intend to take the other person’s property, then it is not theft. For example, in an alleged shoplifting case, if you place a case of beer on the rack under your shopping cart, forget about it and then walk out of the grocery store without paying for it, you should not be held responsible. Or, if your child puts an item in your shopping bag without your knowledge and you leave the store without paying for it, you should not be convicted of theft.
