WAYNE BRUCAR: Over the last decade alone, our law firm has represented thousands of people charged with a crime of retail theft or shoplifting. While most retail thefts are mistakes or lapses in judgment, it is a crime with potentially serious effects on your life. It is a charge that can keep you from getting a job. Misdemeanor retail theft can be punished with jail time. Some retail thefts with items valued over only $150 or second retail thefts can be punished as felonies.
