Burglary Charges

Tenacious Rockland County Criminal Defense Lawyers

Being arrested for burglary should be taken very seriously since a conviction would mean at least a year spent in jail along with other penalties. If you have been charged, you retain certain rights which deserve to be protected, and our Bronx criminal defense lawyer can make sure you are treated fairly and have a chance at avoiding a conviction.

At the Law Office of David D. Narain we are committed to obtaining the most favorable results for those accused of criminal offenses. We have more than a decade of legal experience that we bring to bear in each case we handle. Our background as a former assistant district attorney gives us an edge since we understand how the prosecution works and can work to outmaneuver them.

Avoid the Consequences at all Costs

Burglary is simply the unauthorized entry into a building or dwelling with the intent to commit a crime therein. You could be charged with either misdemeanor or felony burglary depending on the circumstances of your accusation.

Factors which go into determining a sentence include:

• The seriousness of the crime committed
• Whether the accused has a history of burglary
• The nature of the property trespassed upon—commercial or residential
• The time of day—nighttime burglaries are more serious

First degree burglary in New York is the most serious and typically involves the use of force and can put you in jail for up to 25 years in addition to fines and other consequences such as the loss of driving and civil privileges.

Protecting Your Freedom

Our Rockland County criminal defense attorney can fight to have your charges reduced to a lesser charge such as criminal trespassing if they are unable to have your charges dropped entirely. We understand that it can be difficult for the prosecution to prove that you intended to commit a crime on a certain premises, and we can dispute any accusation that you planned to be on a certain property with criminal intent, hurting the prosecution's case.

Trust the Law Office of David D. Narain to contest every part of your charges while upholding your right to a legal defense. We understand your future is on the line when facing criminal charges so look to us to provide an aggressive defense.
