You need a good attorney who will fight for you and do everything possible to avoid a conviction. Many times, individuals steal because they have personal problems or are suffering from depression at the time. I will do everything possible to make the DA understand your situation and use the truth to help your case.
In the event your case is difficult to defend, mitigation becomes key. I will talk to the state and try to work something out that will not negatively affect you in the future. Many defendants can enter programs that can lead to a dismissal, or can take classes to show that they know they messed up. Sometimes defendants can earn dismissals based on their actions post arrest.
Every case is different, and a lot depends on what was stolen, how much it was worth, whether it was shoplifting or an employee theft, and your prior criminal record. Give me a call if you have specific questions and we can work through it.
At Benavides Law Group, we have had countless clients who claim self-defense in aggravated assault charges. If you have any specific questions about your case contact me directly.
