Virginia Embezzlement Penalties
Embezzlement is considered a type of property theft. It happens when a person – who was in charge of managing or monitoring someone else’s money or property – steals all or a portion of that money or property for personal gain.
In order to be convicted of embezzlement, the defendant must have had legal access to another person’s money or property, but not legal ownership of it. Since the act of taking of money or property is stealing, the combination of these two elements results in the unique crime of embezzlement.
In Virginia, embezzlement is punished according to the value or property stolen. If the money or property is worth less than $200, then the crime may be punishable by a jail sentence of up to one year and a maximum fine of $2,500. If the money or property is worth $200 or more, then the crime may be punishable by a prison sentence of up to 20 years.

Mr. James Weaver and his team are true professionals. From the start, he was honest and straightforward. He always stayed positive with me and kept me calm when I thought everything was going horrible. Mr. Weaver got me the best outcome possible in my situation. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a great lawyer.- S. Bohrer
I hired Mr. Weaver for my family law issues. -
I was very nervous when I had to go to court over a traffic accident I was recently involved in. Dan put me at ease almost immediately with his knowledge and tenacity. By the time Dan was finished questioning the other people involved in the accident I did not even have to testify (which was the major source of my nervousness). My innocence was clear to everyone in the room, thanks to Dan. Would definitely use him again and recommend him to others. Aside from his performance during the hearing he was very easy to contact and always kept appointments with me. He also answered all of my questions patiently and with understanding.- Client
