Legal Question
18 yr old son found shoplifting - 1st offense
Do we need to retain an attorney for
court date for 18 yr old son who was
caught shoplifting in Fl (1st offense,
less than $80).
Our son is graduating hs and is set to
start college in late June. I just found
out that he was caught shoplifting
merchandise (worth less than $80)
from Walmart. It is his first offense.
He has a scheduled court date in
early June. I called the Clerk's Office
to ask if we need to retain a lawyer.
They said most ppl do not bring in a
lawyer. Do we need one? Will this
stay on his record?
