Experienced Texas Criminal Defense
Robbery (stealing from a person) and burglary (stealing from a habitation, business or automobile) are serious criminal charges that can be considered either a misdemeanor or felony crime, depending on many factors. Additionally, Texas law enforcement personnel, including judges and district attorneys, view misdemeanor burglary of a motor vehicle as a gateway crime to higher levels of burglary.
