Knowledgeable Las Vegas Grand Larceny Attorneys Explain the Charges

In Nevada, larceny is the umbrella term used to describe crimes such as burglary, robbery, shoplifting, possession of stolen property, and more. Depending on how much the stolen item or items are worth, you can be accused of either petit larceny or grand larceny. Charges of grand larceny are possible when an item is valued at more than $250.

Hofland & Tomsheck has over 20 years of combined legal experience. When you need a knowledgeable Las Vegas grand larceny lawyer, we explain the charges to you, including possible means of defense and potential outcomes.

Experienced Las Vegas Grand Larceny Lawyers Know the Penalties Are Steep

If an item is worth more than $250 but less than $2,500, conviction is punishable by up to five years in prison. The convicted person must also make restitution of the allegedly stolen item. If the item is valued at $2,500 or more, 10 years in prison is possible, as well as a fine of up to $10,000 and restitution of the item.

Defending You against Charges of Grand Larceny in Las Vegas

Defenses against grand larceny in Las Vegas include:

• Lack of intent (i.e., you did not really mean to steal the item or items)
• Proof of ownership (the property was actually yours in the first place)
• Reduced value (the item is not worth enough for the crime to qualify as grand larceny)

We have used such arguments in the past to successfully defend clients against serious charges.
