The difference between petty theft and grand theft is the retail value of the alleged stolen item. Theft involving less than $400 will result in petty theft charges. Theft involving $400 or more will result in grand theft charges (which can be charged as a felony or misdemeanor). Penalties will vary depending on if there are prior offenses, the value of the goods involved and whether or not restitution was made.

Our theft defense attorney, Staycie R. Sena, offers skilled advocacy to clients facing theft charges. She is often capable of successfully negotiating with prosecutors to reduce grand theft charges down to petty theft charges or completely dismissing charges if restitution can be made. It is important to begin these negotiations immediately after an arrest.
