Why Hire Our Firm

Overview of Florida’s Shoplifting Laws

In Florida, shoplifting is defined as taking possession of or carrying away merchandise, property, or money with intent to deprive the merchant of possession, use, benefit, or full retail value. Shoplifting, also known as retail theft, can be classified as either petit theft or grand theft, depending on the value of the stolen items.

  • Stealing property valued at less than $100: Second-degree misdemeanor
  • Stealing property valued at $100 to $300: First-degree misdemeanor
  • Stealing property valued at $300 to $20,000: Third degree felony
  • Stealing property valued at $20,000 to $100,000: Second-degree felony
  • Stealing property valued at more than $100,000: First-degree felony

A first-time shoplifting offense resulting in second-degree misdemeanor charges is punishable by up to $500 in fines and 60 days in jail. The more serious the charges, the more serious the penalties. Don’t let a retail theft conviction ruin your life. Enlist the help of a West Palm Beach criminal defense attorney from our firm today.
