JCPenney Shoplifting Offense

As attorneys that have been defending individuals charged with shoplifting in Lawrence Township for well over twenty years now, we are certainly well acquainted with the PCPenney at Quaker Bridge Mall. There are countless arrests for shoplifting at this department store and all disorderly persons offenses involving this charge end up being handled in Lawrence Township Municipal Court. Shoplifting offenses involving crimes of the third degree and fourth degree are referred to the Mercer County Superior Court in Trenton for resolution as this is the only court with jurisdiction over indictable criminal charges.

Lawrence Township Shoplifting Attorney

Shoplifting is an offense that is often underestimated. It is too uncommon for our lawyers to be confronted with someone who is facing jail time or serious immigration consequences because they make the mistake of trying to handle a shoplifting charge without a highly qualified private attorney. We strongly encourage you to reconsider your decision if you are contemplating appearing in Lawrence or, worse yet, at the Superior Court in Trenton, without a skilled lawyer. This is a foolish lapse in judgement that can end up making a bad situation worse. Take advantage of a free consultation to discuss your PCPenney case with a lawyer before your status and record is potentially compromised. Attorneys are available now at (609) 799-8100.
