Shoplifting is one of the most common juvenile theft crime offenses committed in Fairfield, California. These cases often involve physical evidence in the form of video surveillance, as well as witness testimony by a store employee or security officer who claims to have witnessed the act. However, an experienced defense attorney can still secure a positive outcome for a minor accused of shoplifting.
Any case, no matter how complex or hopeless it may seem, will have an opening or a weakness in the prosecution’s case that can be used to the defendant’s advantage.

We represent clients in juvenile court proceedings throughout all of Solano County and Napa County from our law offices in Vallejo , California.
