San Diego Burglary Defense Lawyer
A one-time arrest for shoplifting is far different from multiple arrests for burglary or robbery. However, no matter what the charge is, you do not want to be thrown into the criminal justice system without an experienced attorney. At the law office of Richard F. Arroyo, I have a reputation for excellence among my clients and peers. I know how to explore every option to avoid detention for theft, shoplifting, burglary and robbery.
My goal is to keep clients out of jail and juvenile hall by pursuing reduced charges or alternative sentencing. You can count on my 30 years of experience defending adults and juveniles against criminal charges.

Theft Charges
Theft covers a wide spectrum of crimes, including:
- Residential burglary (homes)
- Commercial burglary (stores, gas stations)
- Car theft
- Beer runs
- Shoplifting
- Embezzlement
- School lockers
- Purse snatches
I have the skill and experience to handle all of these charges. I also understand that theft often occurs in conjunction with other crimes, such as drug crimes and alcohol offenses. If a client needs help with substance abuse, I will ask for treatment and rehabilitation instead of incarceration.
Theft charges that are related to gang activity will incur more serious penalties. California law allows for harsher sentencing for any crime that is connected to a gang. I understand the serious consequences involved with gang crimes and will provide a vigorous defense on your behalf.
