Los Angeles Burglary Defense Attorney

Defining Burglary

What is burglary, as defined by the California Penal Code? It is a criminal offense that involves unlawfully breaking and entering, entering or remaining in another's property with the intent of committing theft or a felony offense once inside. A defendant in Los Angeles may face misdemeanor or felony charges for burglary, depending on the type of structure entered as well as the use of a weapon and other factors. A felony burglary conviction on a defendant's record may also mean a "strike" on his or her record, resulting in greatly enhanced penalties for future felony convictions.

Just because you were arrested for or charged with burglary, this does not mean that you should be convicted. An arrest does not equal guilt. With a Los Angeles burglary defense attorney to protect your legal rights to the fullest extent, you have the invaluable opportunity of effectively challenging your charges and avoiding a conviction. This will require a focused, aggressive criminal defense strategy based upon a meticulous investigation that reviews all pertinent evidence, including the manner in which the initial investigation, collection and processing of evidence and arrest were carried by law enforcement.
