Any arrest for theft or another property crime in Nebraska must be taken extremely seriously. Too often, accused individuals underestimate the total consequences of guilty pleas and convictions for nonviolent crimes. Talking to police without an attorney’s counsel is a mistake many later regret.
Even a misdemeanor theft or shoplifting charge can have life-altering collateral consequences such as loss of your job, inability to find work in the future or a university suspension or expulsion. If you are accused of taking or damaging property of considerable value, using violence or threats, or other very serious actions, you could be facing jail or prison time and other very harsh penalties.
