Serious crimes such as theft or robbery can carry serious penalties. It is important to engage an attorney as soon as possible after being charged with any crime, but especially when the charge can result in jail or prison time. Before you take actions that may limit your options, please contact my law office for a free initial consultation to discuss your case.
