Property Crimes

Brevard County Criminal Defense Attorney

Sometimes what appears to be a clear cut case of auto theft is not so simple. For example, you may have someone's car keys with the understanding that you have permission to use the vehicle. Instead, you find yourself accused of auto theft. In this situation, representation by an experienced and knowledgeable criminal defense attorney is essential.

At Vance, Lotane & Bookhardt, P.A., we are strong advocates for people accused of all types of property crimes, including:

  • Auto theft and carjacking
  • Theft and burglary
  • Robbery
  • Shoplifting
  • Embezzlement and employee theft
  • Fraud
  • Criminal mischief
  • And other property crimes

In every case, we work to protect our clients' rights and preserve their freedom. Call 877.380.4617 for a free initial consultation.

A Careful Assessment of the Facts

Samuel Bookhardt III will undertake a careful examination of the facts regarding your case. Many types of property crimes such as auto theft, burglary and shoplifting, have different levels of severity, depending on the value of the goods and the specific circumstances of the alleged crime.

Mr. Bookhardt will take every opportunity to reduce the severity of the charge. He will also make use of appropriate motions to suppress and motions to dismiss whenever possible.

During the case preparation process, Samuel Bookhardt III will work closely with the client, to discuss the case and possible legal strategies. In some cases, it may make sense to negotiate a plea that minimizes penalties. In others, a strong and energetic defense at trial will be the client's best option. Mr. Bookhardt will explain these options and work toward obtaining the best outcome possible in your case.

Get Legal Representation ASAP

The importance of obtaining legal representation as quickly as possible cannot be overemphasized. The sooner we get the case, the sooner we can start building your defense. If the accused is in jail, we will work to obtain his or her release on bail. We can also discuss the evidence and charge with the prosecutor. If we get the case soon enough we may be able to convince the prosecutor not to file a charge or to file a lesser charge.
