NYC Burglary Lawyers

Burglary is defined as a property crime in New York State because it is rooted in criminal trespass. And though there has been a decline of burglary arrests in New York over the years, the number is still high – with 8,041 arrests recorded in 2019. All three degrees of burglary charges in New York are defined as felonies under Article 140 of New York Penal Law. This means that jail time is likely if convicted.

Lives are clearly at stake when you or a loved one is charged with burglary. You need to hire a law firm with deep experience and a track record of success defending against burglary charges.
