Queens County Larceny and Theft Lawyer

Aggressive Attorney for Larceny and Theft in New York

When a person wrongfully takes a candy bar from the local candy store or billions of dollars in a Ponzi/Madoff scheme, that person has committed a larceny.  The exact level of the crime can be either a misdemeanor or a felony, depending upon various factors including the type of property, the value and the method of theft used.  Credit card fraud or thefts are always prosecuted as felonies as are most thefts from public agencies.  Welfare fraud, insurance fraud and other frauds are generally felonies.  White Collar crime is virtually always a felony by virtue of the amount involved and the nature of the methodologies used.  No matter what the specific crime being charged, it is absolutely essential that you hire competent counsel to protect your interests.

Since the summer of 1974, I have been involved in criminal law and have dealt with thousands of larceny matters of every type. Whether it is a misdemeanor petit larceny, a grand larceny involving the theft of thousands of dollars by a fraudulent scheme or any other theft, I am there to help you minimize the ill effects to you.

If you are ever called by the police or any law enforcement official, you should remember that you do not have to talk to them. In fact, talking to the police is a certain way to strengthen the prosecution case without any benefit to you.

Larceny can involve internet schemes, computer crimes or business persons who make poor decisions.
