SHOPLIFTING: NO CHARGES FILED

Client, a scientist on a work visa, was apprehended by the Loss Prevention Department at Shaw’s in the parking lot for shoplifting approximately $160 worth of merchandise. Client retained Attorney Patrick J. Noonan who negotiated with the Loss Prevention Department not to file any criminal charges against his client.

Result: No charges were filed against the Defendant, which would have had possible immigration consequences because the client was on a work visa.
