The old style pin tumbler type locks can be picked to turn them pretty easy as long as they are not badly corroded or jammed up with crud. A good lock smith should have the wherwithal to turn one open without too much trouble.

Worst case scenario would require to drill the cylinder out to clear the driven pins and remove it that way.
