Don’t Let Them Rob You Of Your Finances And Freedom

Burglary is a serious felony in Pennsylvania. Typically, it occurs when someone enters a building with the intent of committing a theft crime. Burglary charges may also be accompanied by a weapons charge, which can escalate a situation and lead to harsher prosecution.

An arrest and conviction for robbery, burglary, or breaking and entering can land you in jail, drain your finances with heavy fines and establish a criminal record. You need the help of a defense lawyer who can help you avoid those negative outcomes and ensure the best possible outcome for your case.

We Know The Serious Situation You’re About To Face

Attorney Jr. has handled more than 200 jury trials in his more than 33 years career as a defense lawyer. He knows that the punishments you face include jail time and restitution for things taken in a burglary.

A burglary or robbery charge is usually accompanied by an offense such as:

  • Receiving stolen property
  • Criminal mischief
  • Trespass
  • Possession of an instrument of crime

If a home was occupied during a burglary, the consequences for the convicted could be a prison term of 10 to 20 years. Second-degree burglary is defined as entering an unoccupied home with the intent of committing a crime. Third-degree burglary is for entering an unoccupied building or business.
