We Keep Our Fees Low So That Everyone Can Have Legal Representation

There is no benefit whatsoever to you pleading guilty to a Normandy MO stealing charge. In fact, pleading guilty will only result in negative consequences for you in the end. For example, a stealing and/or theft charge will become a permanent criminal conviction on your record, forever. That means any time in the future that you apply for a job, or try to rent an apartment, or put in an application for a loan, or for a Commercial Driver’s License, the conviction will likely prevent you from enjoying these things.

Pleading Guilty Is Not Your Best Option!!

But we have a much different plan in mind!! To begin with, we will want to examine all of the facts surrounding your case to determine if there are any viable defenses that we can assert on your behalf. We would also want to work closely with the local prosecutor to see about getting the charges reduced to a lesser offense (so that nothing shows up on your record). And at the very least, we would want to try and work out an SIS with the court. SIS stands for “suspended imposition of sentence,” which usually comes with a period of probation between one to two years. So long as you stay clean during that period of time (and do not get into any more trouble), then once the probation has ended the original charge drops off altogether.
