Burglary and robbery charges are often misunderstood. You be may be shocked to learn that you are accused of a felony crime and facing the possibility of prison time. Avoiding a conviction or minimizing the penalties depends upon a skilled attorney who understands how these crimes are prosecuted and how to improve your situation.

Many times, burglary and robbery are crimes of opportunity and involve drug or alcohol use and poor judgment, rather than well-hatched plans by career criminals. These reasons do not mitigate the charges or penalties. However, if there is no pattern of such behavior, prosecutors may be more willing to dismiss the case or entertain favorable plea agreements that avoid a stiff prison term for one very bad decision.
Criminal defense lawyers at the Law Offices of Dan Allan study every fact of the case for grounds to suppress evidence or argue for reduced charges. They've obtained dismissals by convincing the judge that search warrants were illegal. In other cases, they've been successful at countering "eyewitness" statements or challenging the probable cause for arrest to gain leverage for negotiations. See Representative Case Results.
