What's the difference between theft & grand theft?

Friday, February 5, 2010 by Fred Mark Dry


Fred Mark Dry understands criminal law in Chicago, and explains the difference between theft & grand theft…

Under Illinois law, theft is defined as taking the property of another with the intent to permanently deprive them of their property, - and "which version" of theft depends on the value of the property, the way it was taken or the type of property.

If you are charged with what you believe is "petty theft", you should take it seriously. Some people think to themselves, “I'll just get probation or a fine."  That may be true in the short term, but a theft conviction stays with you forever. 

It can stop you from getting a decent job, impact a professional license or have immigration consequences.

All theft charges require an experienced Chicago criminal attorney, call Fred Mark Dry today, your future depends on it.
