Petit Larceny And Grand Larceny
Grand Larceny: Grand Larceny occurs when a theft is alleged that has a value of more than $1,000.00. These allegations often require a great deal of investigation to determine actual values and the basis of values. Restitution is often an issue and “victims” will often attempt to recoup money that they never paid or was reimbursed to them already through an insurance company.
Petit Larceny: Petit Larceny occurs when an individual is alleged to have stolen property that is valued at less than $1,000.00. Legal representation for a matter such as this is imperative. Having an attorney who can navigate the evidence and research the value of the alleged stolen property and make appropriate arguments regarding the actions of the police as well as non-police entitles involved in the arrest and detaining of an individual is crucial to the defense of this type of matter.
In addition to the various penalties that will come with a conviction for a theft charge, you may also be forced to pay restitution if you no longer have the stolen item in your possession.

Aggressive Defense to Burglary Charges in Poughkeepsie, NY
In New York, burglary is defined as unlawfully entering or remaining within a building with the intent to commit a crime. The building in question is often someone's home, and that is why these cases are taken so seriously: someone's home and sanctuary has been violated. It is also important to note that a person can be charged with burglary even if he or she did not actually steal anything.
Be aware that criminal prosecutors are not going to go easy on you. If you are convicted of this criminal charge, you may face fines or incarceration. Your future is in jeopardy. Turn to an experienced lawyer. Turn to The Law Office of Kelley M. Enderley, PC.
Attacking The Evidence In Burglary Cases
Since burglaries typically involve home invasion, there is rarely videotape evidence. In fact, there may be little solid proof at all that the accused committed the crime. In many cases, our Hudson Valley burglary attorney has seen that burglary charges have been filed on the basis of little more than a co-defendant pointing the finger. The word of another person accused of collaborating on the burglary is not strong evidence, and we will attack it.
In some cases, the evidence may be more solid. The accused may have been turned in by a pawnshop for attempting to sell stolen property. Whatever the case may be, we will thoroughly review all evidence for weaknesses and design a defense strategy designed to overcome the burglary charges.

Poughkeepsie Lawyer For Possession Of Stolen Property Charges
Charges of possession of stolen property often go along with other criminal charges in New York, particularly theft, burglary or robbery. Multiple charges make it all the more important to choose an experienced lawyer.
Even if you have only been charged with possession of stolen property, a conviction can have a serious impact on your life. You may be fined and incarcerated. You will be left with a criminal record that will make it difficult to pursue career opportunities. At The Law Office of Kelley M. Enderley, PC, we fight to protect your future.
Sale Of Stolen Property
In many cases, the accused is caught because he or she attempted to sell the stolen property to a pawn shop, used video game store, used CD store or used DVD store. Most of these businesses ask for a person's identification before buying an item. The stores keep the seller's name, address and phone number on file. If an employee at the store becomes suspicious about the items being sold, he or she may call the police and provide the individual's information. Then, if the items are determined to have been stolen, an arrest will be made.
A Poughkeepsie attorney handling possession of stolen property charges will review the evidence. On the surface, it may seem strong, but experience has taught us that there are often weaknesses. Even when there are not, there may be options that we can pursue to have the charges or penalties reduced. The key is to discuss the case with us first, rather than discussing it with the police. We are committed to fighting these serious charges.
