Criminal Defense Attorney Who Understands Your Rights
Larceny (sometimes used interchangeably with “theft”) is basically stealing someone else’s property. Based upon the value of the stolen property, petty theft charges could be filed (a misdemeanor), or grand theft charges could result (a felony). White-collar crimes like embezzlement and bank fraud are commonly charged as felonies because they usually involve large sums of money.
