Florida Theft Penalties
In Florida, theft is punishable by:
- Fines
- Jail time
- Criminal record
- Restitution to the victim
The exact penalties will depend on the circumstances of your crime and the value of the property. The higher the value of stolen goods, the harsher the punishment.
In addition to the criminal penalties, you may face the loss of professional licenses and may find it difficult to secure gainful employment even after you've served your sentence. It is important to seek the help of an attorney who can advocate for you and push for a dismissal or reduced charges whenever possible.
If it is your first offense, you may qualify for diversion programs that can help you avoid jail time and keep your record clean. Talk to a Miami theft crime attorney to see whether you qualify.
