We know of someone who we are helping, Has been charged with Theft and they didn't know of it, and basically answered the questions of a Criminal Private Investigator And had enough to where they have a warrant. But the investigator is NOT letting police come get them because they are going to go do a "walk-through" procedure. So my concern is what kind of attorney should be hired? It is classified under: Theft on a "probable cause" and it's 5,000 bail bond. They have enough evidence of the perso accusing them is harassing them, and that they didn't do it, and the person gave them the things they claiming, they had stole when they didn't in the first place. They have voicemails of them saying they did give them things. So most likely it will be dismissed, or how would that go about?

You need to speak to a criminal defense attorney in Texas as soon as possible. If this case has not yet been filed, a criminal defense attorney may be able to prevent criminal charges from getting filed against you altogether.

This is a very confusing question. It sounds like you have some information but not nearly enough to communicate what's going on. Probable cause is simply the level of proof needed for the police to issue an arrest warrant. A $5,000 bond in Dallas suggests a felony. A person charged with theft at any level should retain a criminal defense attorney. The attorney will work the case from there. They will obtain and review the states evidence and present the DA with any evidence they have in their clients defense. Obviously a dismissal is always the goal but it is not always possible. The defendant always has the right to plead not guilty and have a trial. This person should start interviewing local experienced attorneys immediately. Most of us offer free consultations.
