Property Crimes
Oklahoma City Defense Lawyer: Theft Charges
Are you being investigated for employee theft? Were you arrested for shoplifting? Are you being investigated for credit card fraud? If you have been arrested or are a suspect in any type of property crime case, it is extremely important to discuss your case with an attorney before making a statement to prosecutors, police or investigators.
Attorney Rita Jencks: Contact me for a free consultation about defense representation.
From my office in Edmond, I provide criminal defense representation to clients in courts throughout the Oklahoma City area. I will explain your legal options and the likely outcome of each. The prosecutor will usually charge theft as a felony, a decision based on the value of the stolen goods. As your lawyer I will work to get the charge against you reduced to a misdemeanor or dismissed altogether. I will challenge the state's evidence against you and the estimate of the value of the stolen property or loss.
I am prepared to provide a strong defense against property crime charges, including:
- Felony theft
- Petty theft
- Shoplifting
- Embezzlement
- Employee theft
- Credit card fraud
- Writing bad checks
- Robbery and burglary
White collar crime

Call a lawyer before talking to the police or prosecutor.
If you are under suspicion or have been charged with any type of theft or fraud, exercise your constitutional right to remain silent. Anything you say to police or prosecutors will be used against you. If you would like to meet with me and discuss how I can help, please call 405.285.2882 or e-mail my firm to arrange a free initial consultation. At that time, we can discuss fee arrangements, including payment by credit card.
