Am I going to jail? It's often the first question that we hear from potential clients. The truth is that it's impossible to predict the outcome of a case. However, at the Law Offices of J. Charles Bunk, we do whatever it takes within the scope of the law to protect your freedom. If you have been accused of theft, we can prepare a complete and effective criminal defense designed to achieve the best possible results.
Our San Antonio, Texas, law firm handles many different types of theft crimes, including:
- Shoplifting
- Check fraud
- Credit card fraud
- Identity theft
- Burglary of a habitation/criminal trespassing
- Robbery
- Aggravated robbery
- Embezzlement
Many of the theft crime cases we handle are charged as "aggravated" crimes because a weapon was involved. Under the law, a weapon can be nearly any object, including a gun, knife, pipe or stick. It does not even matter whether you use it or not. Just displaying a weapon can be enough to make the charges you face more serious.
Defending People Who Are Wrongly Accused of Theft
Identity is often a critical issue in Texas theft crime cases. Prosecutors depend on photo lineups or onsite identifications by store employees or theft crime victims. These witnesses are often flustered and unreliable. It is possible that they ID the wrong person and falsely accuse that person of theft. Our law firm has handled many cases in which a person was wrongly accused of a theft crime.
