Theft

Theft

Theft crimes are among the most common crimes charged in Minnesota. The crimes of theft include misdemeanors, gross misdemeanors, and felonies. Generally speaking, the severity of the crime will be determined by the value of the property stolen or the loss sustained by a victim. The attorneys at Lundgren & Johnson have handled a wide variety of theft cases in state and federal court, including misdemeanor shoplifting, auto theft, receiving stolen property, and white collar theft cases (embezzlement, wire fraud, identity theft, and securities violations). The proof of our hard work lies in the successes we have achieved for our clients charged with theft crimes.

FEDERAL LAW THEFT CRIMES

The federal government, through the Department of Justice and the United States Attorneys Office, will normally seek an indictment when the alleged conduct involves a banking institution or other federal institution, or when the amounts of loss are substantial. In recent years, federal prosecutions have targeted white-collar crimes such as insider trading, mortgage fraud, and securities fraud. The federal government has also shown a keen interest in prosecuting medicare fraud. Under federal law, a conviction for a federal theft crime may call for many years in prison. Many high profile cases have illustrated the severe consequences imposed against the perpetrators of complex fraud schemes. Our attorneys have defended people investigated and indicted on white-collar theft crimes in federal court. We have defended the tough cases.
