Only $450 To Handle Most Bellerive, MO Stealing or Theft Charges

Most Bellerive Missouri Misdemeanor Stealing Charges Can Be Handled for Only $450

There are a few things you should know about before you decide to plead guilty to your Bellerive MO stealing charge:

  1. If you plead guilty, it will become a part of your permanent record
  2. This means that anytime a criminal background check is run, the stealing conviction will show up
  3. If the stealing conviction is on your record, then you will have a difficult time getting a good job, or renting an apartment, or even being accepting into certain schools

In addition to these consequences, you will have to contend with the sentence that the court can potentially impose.

Pleading Guilty Is Not Your Best Option!!

If you are not interested in having this type of thing on your record (or if you would like to stay out of jail), here are a few things that a good Bellerive Missouri criminal defense attorney can do for you:

  1. The attorney will have an opportunity to look into the facts of your case to see if the charges can be thrown out
  2. Your lawyer can also be working closely with the local prosecutor to possibly get the charges reduced to a lesser infraction (like “littering”)
  3. And if neither of those two options is available, the lawyer might be able to secure an SIS (suspended imposition of sentence) on your behalf; this involves a period of probation (after the completion of which the charges drop off altogether)

So as you can see, retaining the services of a skilled St. Louis attorney is far better than the alternative!!

I've used this firm twice, both for speeding tickets. Both times it was zero hassle: just a matter of giving them the ticket. I've also recommended them to my friends, who have had the same experience. (My friends and I speed a lot.) Highly recommended. I'm sure I'll be back. David Rieken
