Will Your Theft Be Dismissed?
Welcome to My
theft defense Practice
My name is Gus Kostopoulos. For the past 21 years, I have practiced criminal law, including Theft Defense.
I am a former prosecutor. For the past 15 years, I have been a criminal defense attorney aggressively defending people accused of crimes.
My team of three attorneys helps people in Theft matters, including White Collar Crime, Embezzlement, Retail Theft, Identity Theft, Burglary and Residential Burglary.
The legal system takes Theft cases very seriously.
Fortunately, so do we.
OUR STRATEGIES FOR WINNING RETAIL THEFT CASES
1. Exhaustive Research & Preparation
We demand that the government turn over all police reports, videos, and other evidence. Our experienced trial attorneys examine all of it very carefully to look for defenses to win the case.
2. Negotiated Dismissal
Our experienced attorneys are respected by judges and prosecutors. We can often convince prosecutors to agree to dismiss cases in exchange for our client’s volunteering to complete some volunteer work.
3. Trial Dismissal
On the day of trial, our experienced trial attorneys are often able to get a complete dismissal, without having to call a single witness. Government prosecutors often lack all of the evidence and witnesses that they would like and know that our skilled trial lawyers will prevent them from entering testimony that contravenes evidentiary rules. We can then convince prosecutors to dismiss the case. Sometimes they may motion the judge for a continuance, but our trial attorneys vigorously object, causing the case to get dismissed..
