Theft Conviction Avoided By Immigrant

Our client had been residing in our country for years with no legal trouble.  While shopping in a local department store, she found herself being accused of theft of merchandise.  Due to language barriers, the confusion led to a criminal charge of theft.  Knowing the significance of the charge and its potential impact on her becoming a citizen, she consulted her immigration attorney and then retained the Columbus Criminal Attorney team.

Attorneys with LHA attended her arraignment on her behalf.  After a review of the evidence and negotiations, the prosecutor agreed to dismiss her case upon completion of a minimal theft diversion program.  Our client has avoided a problematic theft charge and can go about her naturalization process unaffected.
