Experienced and Reliable DuPage and Cook County Criminal Defense
Anyone can be accused of a property or theft crime. Often it is the teenager stealing beer from someone's garage refrigerator or the impulsive parent that makes a bad decision and is caught trying to shoplift at the mall. We represent people of all walks of life, people with mortgages and full time jobs who are accused of making an unfortunate and potentially damaging decision.
At the Clarendon Hills law office of DiBenedetto & Kendall, P.C., each of our attorneys has been working in criminal law for more than 20 years, and we understand how easy it can be for people to become involved in a criminal act, once or even multiple times. We put those years of experience, a proven record in and out of the courtroom, and an absolute commitment to client support behind every case.
Working with our office you get a lawyer who genuinely cares about fighting for you.
Strong and Reliable Property Crimes Defense
Any criminal charge, whether a misdemeanor or a felony can carry lasting consequences. Not only could you be facing serious fines or jail time, you can also create challenges in gaining employment, pursuing education. No crime is too small to fight.
Property crimes cover a broad category that can include:
- Unlawful use of credit cards
- Theft / retail theft
- Shoplifting
- Trespassing
- Criminal damage to property
- Vandalism
- Burglary
- Arson
- Identity theft
Often it is juveniles accused of property crimes, particularly at schools or in malls; not always because they actually did serious damage but because they were in the wrong place at the wrong time. Juvenile crimes are, however, just as serious as an adult offense, and contrary to popular belief they can have a lasting impact into adulthood.
Our office represents both adults and juvenile defendants. As former prosecutors we understand how the other side builds their case, and we use that knowledge to expose and exploit weaknesses as well as the full resources of the law to help you.
