Clark County Breaking and Entering Defense Attorney
According to Nevada law, if you enter a building or other structure with the intent to commit a felony, you can be charged with burglary. Whether you actually commit a crime or not, the prosecution can still charge you with burglary. The most common crime associated with burglary is larceny but assault or any other felony can qualify the defendant for a burglary charge.
Burglary charges can carry some stiff penalties including significant fines and jail time. Be sure you hire an experienced attorney who can protect your rights. The law firm of Mace Yampolsky & Associates in Las Vegas works with clients throughout Clark County and southern Nevada in all types of cases involving burglary.
Building a Strong Burglary Defense for Your Case
The key to a solid burglary defense is often challenging the prosecution's case surrounding intent. To meet the State's burden of proof, the prosecution must prove that you intended to commit a crime when you entered the house, store or other building. I will fight aggressively to beat the charges against you and work to ensure that you are not held responsible for a crime you did not commit.
I will fully investigate the charges against you and the circumstances surrounding the actual incident. I will review all the police reports and witness statements to find any inconsistencies in the prosecution's case. If the burglary charge is associated with another crime, I will work to challenge the charges on both counts.
