If you’ve been accused of theft, ensuring you have experienced and proactive legal support is important to protecting your rights. At Gepp Solicitors, we represent individuals facing theft charges throughout Essex and London.
Theft is defined as taking another person’s property without their consent and with the intention of permanently depriving them of it.
To secure a conviction for theft, the prosecution must prove several key elements. These include dishonesty, meaning that you acted dishonestly in taking the property; appropriation, where you assumed the rights of the owner even if the original possession was honest; and the involvement of property, which can include not only physical items but also money or intangible assets. It must also be shown that the property belonged to another person and that there was an intention to permanently deprive the owner of it.
We know how stressful it can be to face a theft allegation. That’s why we provide clear advice and robust defence from the very first police station interview through to trial. Our team works with precision and preparation to protect your rights and secure the best possible outcome.
With decades of combined experience, our team has successfully defended clients against a wide range of theft charges. We are known for our strategic approach, our client care and our strong track record in criminal defence.
