Re: 3rd degree retail fraud 1st offense

The likely result is that you will put on probation and required to pay restitution. There is a provision in Michigan law which will allow you "one free bite of the apple." In other words,the conviction will not be part of your permanent record, provided that you have no priors, don't pick up any new offenses and successfully complete probation. If you would like to discuss your case in more detail, please call me at 313.963.9500.

It is very important to keep it off your record. I handle many RF cases in Metro Detroit. Call me to discuss if you are in the Metro Area. Tim Klisz www.kliszlaw.com

You should be very weary on an attorney giving you advice about any case without fully understanding the case. (Certainly you wouldn't want a doctor to diagnose you over the internet with just a few facts to work with.)
