At Kisel Law, we offer aggressive and experienced legal representation for clients facing robbery charges. Our mission is to protect your rights, your reputation, and your future.
Understanding Robbery Charges
Robbery is considered a violent felony in most jurisdictions. It is defined as the unlawful taking of property from another person or their immediate presence through the use of force, threats, or intimidation. Unlike theft or burglary, robbery involves direct confrontation with a victim, which significantly increases the severity of the crime and the associated penalties.
Common Types of Robbery:
-
Armed Robbery: Involves the use of a deadly weapon (firearms, knives, etc.).
-
Aggravated Robbery: Typically includes serious physical harm or the presence of a weapon.
-
Strong-Arm Robbery: Uses physical force but no weapon.
-
Home-Invasion Robbery: Occurs when someone enters a residence by force to commit robbery.
-
Carjacking: The taking of a vehicle from someone by force or intimidation.
What Are the Penalties for Robbery?
The penalties for robbery vary based on the degree of the offense, the presence of weapons, injuries to the victim, and prior criminal history. However, they often include:
-
State or federal prison sentences (ranging from 2 years to life in aggravated cases)
-
Tens of thousands of dollars in fines
-
Restitution to victims
-
Probation or parole
-
Loss of civil rights (such as gun ownership and voting)
-
A permanent felony record
This is why it’s crucial to work with a defense attorney who understands how to fight robbery charges from every angle.
