Burglary, Larceny, Motor Vehicle Theft, Shoplifting, Criminal Mischief, Arson

In the world of criminal behavior, there are different types of crimes. The main categories of crime include offenses against people (e.g. violent crimes), inchoate crimes (“attempts”), statutory crimes (e.g. alcohol-related crimes, drug crimes, traffic offenses, and white collar crimes), financially-motivated crimes, and crimes against property.

As the name suggests, “property crime” generally involves damaging or destroying someone else’s property. Although damaging someone else’s property may cause the property owner to experience strong, negative emotions and significant mental harm as a result of losing enjoyment or use of their property, or losing the money they spent on it, property crime does not typically involve an act of violence toward the owner of the property.

As such, most property crimes are also categorized as theft crimes, including:

  • Burglary
  • Larceny
  • Motor Vehicle theft
  • Shoplifting
  • Arson
  • Criminal Mischief

“The object of the theft-type offenses is the taking of money or property, but there is no force or threat of force against the victims. The property crime category includes arson because the offense involves the destruction of property; however, arson victims may be subjected to force,” according to the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s (FBI) page on property crime.

Serving Jacksonville, FL Since 2004

    "Although I hope to never need their services again, if I do, I will definitely be giving them a call."
    First and foremost, everyone from staff to the attorneys are all great!! I first started with the firm in 2015 and due to my own circumstances, I was unable to complete the needed court requirements in order to finalize my case. The amount I paid to retain an attorney was placed in a trust and they assured me it would be there until I completed my requirements. 4 years later they kept their word and finalized my case once I completed my needed court requirement. Everything was professional and in a timely fashion on their behalf. They also found a second issue that needed to be resolved and also completed that for me. Although I hope to never need their services again, if I do, I will definitely be giving them a call. Thank you, everyone!

    "I would refer anyone to this firm"
    It always baffled me how much both Jason and Gary knew about the intricacies of my case at any given time. These guys work for, and show up to court for, their CLIENTS - in other words, they're not cutting a bunch of deals to clear dockets. I will never go anywhere else for legal advice - these guys are the real deal.

    "Jason and his staff were very professional."
    100% success rate. I used Jason Porter's services two different times for a DUI charge. The first DUI case I never lost my license and he won the case. The second time it was a little more difficult because of the circumstances but we took it to trial and it seemed like an effortless victory. Jason and his staff were very professional and helpful through the entire process.I could not have asked for anything more. Thank you so much for everything.
