Round Rock Burglary Attorney

Burglary in Round Rock

If you entered someone's home, business, warehouse or other structure without their permission and with the intention of committing a crime such as theft, you can be charged with burglary. You can also face burglary charges if you enter a structure that is not open to the public or hide in a building in order to commit a felony, theft or assault.

A burglary offense can be charged as a:

• State jail felony
• Second degree felony
• First degree felony

A state jail felony is more serious than a misdemeanor but not as severe as a felony. The gravity of the charge will depend on the type of structure that was entered. You can also be charged with the burglary of a vehicle, a Class C misdemeanor, if you break into or enter another person's car with the intention of committing a felony or theft. Persons that unlawfully enter a structure without intending to commit a crime are generally charged with criminal trespass, a Class C misdemeanor.

If you have been arrested for burglary, a Round Rock criminal defense attorney can give you the valuable legal advice that you will need when fighting these potential serious charges. Representation by a seasoned litigator is also imperative to ensure your rights are protected and you are not taken advantage of by the court.
