Theft

Allegations of theft and other related offences such as fraud present a number of challenges unique to this area. The level of complexity varies from a simple allegation of shoplifting to sophisticated “white collar crime.”

Common investigative tools include the use of store security or banking personnel, the use of banking records, and surveillance videos.

Each situation is unique and therefore must be assessed individually. In addition to exploring the available defences, legal advice may assist you in dealing with your matter outside the criminal justice system.
