Orange County Burglary Attorney

Burglary Charges

Burglary has to do with entering a vessel, vehicle, or building with the intention to steal something or commit a petty theft or felony. Nothing needs to have been stolen and no felony has to actually be committed. The prosecutor only needs to prove that the accused had the intention; that is enough to obtain a conviction and it must be based on evidence to prove so. If you have been arrested for burglary it is vital that you speak with an experienced Orange County criminal defense lawyer that can explain your rights and help you design an effective defense.

A prosecutor needs to present evidence to the court that there was an intention to commit a crime such as possession of burglary tools to break in, or concealed bags to carry out goods taken in a situation of shoplifting. Even without concrete evidence, the prosecutor will generally work to gain conviction through other means. First degree burglary involves entering a dwelling. Second degree burglary covers entry of all other premises or vehicles. Both of these crimes result in severe penalties if intention to commit a crime can be proven.
