Theft and Burglary
Attorney Defending Against Theft and Burglary Charges
The number of possible criminal charges involving the taking of property is significant. People accused of theft, burglary and other property crimes often do not believe they have done anything wrong.

Understanding the Theft and Burglary Charges Against You
Under Texas law, there are a wide variety of crimes involving the theft of property or otherwise illegal behaviors involving property. There are a variety of different defenses I can assert to challenge the prosecution's proof of guilt.
I can handle many different Texas property crimes including:
- Theft
- Robbery
- Burglary
- Identity theft
- Forgery
- Fraud
The differences between these often conflated crimes can be subtle. For example, burglary is technically the act of breaking and entering a building in order to commit a crime (usually a property crime), while robbery legally must involve the use of force or the threat of force to steal something. I understand these minute differences and I can use my knowledge to put together a strong legal defense.
