Common Property Crime Charges We Defend in Bexar County
Theft (Misdemeanor & Felony)
Even a low-level theft charge can have severe consequences. We frequently defend cases involving:
-
Shoplifting
-
Employee theft
-
Misunderstandings at self-checkout
-
Lost-property disputes
-
False accusations based on incomplete or incorrect surveillance footage
Our goal is always dismissal, reduction, or a resolution that keeps your record clean.
Burglary of a Vehicle (BOV)
Bexar County files thousands of BOV cases annually—many based solely on weak or circumstantial evidence such as:
-
Poor-quality surveillance
-
Incorrect identifications
-
Assumptions about possession of stolen items
We challenge the evidence from the very beginning to prevent this charge from following you for life.
Burglary of a Building / Habitation
These charges are extremely serious and often over-charged. Prosecutors frequently rely on:
-
Fingerprints gathered improperly
-
Cell phone data misinterpreted
-
Weak assumptions about “intent”
We work to dismantle the State's theory and highlight alternative explanations.
Criminal Mischief
Criminal mischief covers accusations such as vandalism, property damage, and disputes involving vehicles, apartments, or personal property. Many of these cases involve:
-
No eyewitness
-
Exaggerated repair estimates
-
Civil disputes being pushed into the criminal system
We aim to resolve these quickly—often through dismissal, restitution agreements, or reduction to lesser charges.
Unauthorized Use of a Vehicle (UUV)
Many UUV cases involve:
-
Borrowed vehicles
-
Miscommunication about permission
-
Friends or relatives reporting a car stolen out of anger
We work to uncover the truth and challenge the State's narrative.
Shoplifting & Retail Theft
Retail theft cases are increasingly based on:
-
Loss-prevention officer mistakes
-
Over-aggressive store policies
-
Faulty or incomplete camera angles
We look for every weakness to get these dismissed or reduced.
How Texas Defenders Fights Property Crime Charges
Property crimes are often defensible because the evidence is usually:
-
Circumstantial
-
Incomplete
-
Based on assumptions rather than facts
-
Constructed from unreliable eyewitness identifications
Our Bexar County property crimes defense strategy includes:
-
Demanding and reviewing all surveillance footage
-
Challenging the value of alleged damages or stolen items
-
Investigating alternative suspects or explanations
-
Attacking unreliable witness statements
-
Negotiating options that avoid a conviction and protect your record
In many cases, we secure dismissals, reductions, or resolutions that prevent long-term harm.
