CHARGE: SHOPLIFTING

In a recent case handled by Attorney Kensley Barrett, our client faced a shoplifting charge after an incident at Macy's in the Emerald Square Mall in Attleboro. The client was accused of placing over $600 worth of merchandise into a backpack and attempting to leave the store without payment. Store security stopped the client at the exit, and she admitted to the attempt when questioned by the Attleboro Police Department.

Recognizing the importance of protecting the client's record and avoiding long-term consequences, Attorney Barrett took swift action to negotiate a resolution with the Commonwealth. Through strategic discussions with the prosecution, Attorney Barrett successfully secured an agreement that allowed for a dismissal of the charge upon the payment of court costs.

This favorable outcome ensured that the client's record remained clear, allowing her to move forward without the burden of a criminal conviction. The case exemplifies the firm's commitment to securing the best possible results for our clients through diligent advocacy and skilled negotiation.
