Theft / Robbery / Mischief
Strategic defence focused on protecting your rights, your record, and your future.
Charged with a Property Related Offence?
Defending Your Freedom
Whether it’s a shoplifting allegation or a serious robbery charge, property-related offences can lead to life-altering consequences—from a criminal record to jail time, lost employment, and restricted travel. Even a minor incident can lead to a criminal record that affects your job, travel, and future. At Wilson Defence, we understand that people make mistakes—and that not every accusation tells the full story.
We provide strategic, non-judgmental defence for clients facing a wide range of property-related offences. Whether this is your first charge or you’ve been through the system before, we will fight to protect your rights and help you move forward.
Early Legal Advice Matters
Many of these offences—especially first-time theft and mischief charges—can be resolved through diversion, peace bonds, or other alternatives that avoid a criminal record. We carefully review the evidence, assess for unlawful police conduct, and pursue every available defence or resolution.

What’s the Difference?
Property-related charges fall under different sections of the Criminal Code and carry varying levels of severity. Here's how they differ:
Theft involves taking property without permission, with the intent to deprive the owner.
Robbery involves theft combined with violence or the threat of violence—making it a more serious offence, often prosecuted as indictable with potential jail time.
Mischief includes damaging or interfering with property, even if nothing was taken. You can be charged with mischief for acts as simple as breaking a window or disabling someone’s access to their own property.
