How Do I Find a Lawyer for a Second Degree Theft Charge in New Jersey?

Look for a New Jersey criminal defense lawyer with experience handling indictable theft charges and serious property-value disputes. A second-degree theft charge generally involves property valued at $75,000 or more and may expose you to five to ten years in state prison, significant fines, restitution, and a permanent criminal record.

As a former prosecutor, Matthew Cohan understands how prosecutors build theft cases and how to challenge intent, valuation, ownership, and the evidence used to support a second-degree charge.
