Caramanna Friedberg LLP Outlines Diversion and Restitution Options for People Charged With Theft

Caramanna Friedberg LLP was set up in Toronto back in 2002, and criminal defence has been its main line of work since that very first year. Its lawyers appear in courts across the province. Doctors, nurses, teachers, and lawyers who receive a complaint from their regulator also come to the firm.

The firm has a Toronto theft lawyer[https://www.google.com/maps?cid=12477563955807123677] for cases big and small, whether the charge is shoplifting, possession of stolen property, identity theft or theft over $5,000. Each file is different, so the lawyer may push for a withdrawal, explore diversion, negotiate a deal with the Crown, or proceed to trial. A small dollar amount or full repayment can make diversion possible for the client. Restitution means paying back the value of the property that was taken.

"Most of the people we help with theft charges have jobs and families to think about, and they want to keep both on track," a spokesperson for the firm said. "We explain how diversion and restitution work early in the case, because those options can matter a great deal to someone with no record. Our team stays with each client through every court date and keeps them updated as the Crown shares its disclosure."

The firm's website carries a guide on choosing a criminal law firm, a directory of Ontario courthouses, a list of reported cases and a blog with articles on criminal law. In 2022-23, Canadian Lawyer Magazine added the firm to its list of criminal law boutiques. Clients meet the lawyers at the Bay Street office, a short walk from the downtown courthouses.
People with an older theft conviction can also get help with a record suspension application once enough time has passed after the sentence. If you're still waiting for a first court appearance, you can arrange a consultation through the firm's website.
