Salt Lake City Theft Crime Attorney

Home/Practice Areas/Theft Crimes Lawyer

Theft is most simply defined as when one person takes personal property of some value from another person, with specific intent to permanently deprive him or her of that property.

Criminal Defense of Theft Charges in Salt Lake City

Few crimes can damage a person’s reputation worse than getting charged with theft. If you have been accused of a theft crime in Salt Lake City, you could face significant penalties, including fines, probation or even jail time. Theft charges can also significantly damage a person’s reputation. It is important to fight these charges as quickly as possible. The first step is to seek representation and legal counsel from an experienced and knowledgeable Salt Lake City theft crimes defense attorney.

My name is Daniel Matern and I am a Salt Lake City criminal defense attorney. Over the years, I have represented many men and women who were accused of theft. Salt Lake City police and law enforcement are cracking down on thieves. Many people are charged with theft as a result of police error or false accusations. The criminal defense talents of Daniel Matern have made a difference to people facing a range of theft charges including:

  • Armed robbery / aggravated robbery
  • Identity theft
  • Burglary
  • Carjacking
  • Grand theft auto
  • Employment theft
  • Retail theft
  • Home invasion

The penalties for theft crimes vary depending on the circumstances of the crime and the value of stolen property. Certain enhancements increase the penalties of the theft charges against you with the use of force, or threat of force. Force is not limited to the use of firearms, either; one might simply be raising a fist.

Not all theft crimes are the same. For example, identity theft has become one of the fastest growing forms of theft crimes in Salt Lake City. It does not necessarily involve the seizure of material possessions. It can be executed by a few simple clicks of the mouse. Theft crimes can be as varied as the people accused. I have defended a wide variety of people from all walks of life. When it comes to theft crime defense in Salt Lake City, experience matters. Do not take chances with your choice of legal representation.

The Consequences of Salt Lake City Theft Crimes

Penalties for theft crimes can vary, depending on the value of the stolen property and the circumstances of the crime. Certain enhancements increase the penalties of theft charges, including the use of force or the threat of force. If you are charged with theft, it is vital to be proactive. I utilize an aggressive and comprehensive approach to help place each client in the best position to succeed. Most people arrested on theft charges do not know their rights. When a suspect makes poor decisions, it can have disastrous results. My priority is to make sure each client has their rights protected. It starts with educating them on the legal process and to always look out for their best interests.
