A Skilled Defense Lawyer Fighting Robbery Charges

If you have been charged with robbery in Collin, Denton or Dallas counties, an experienced defense attorney can protect your rights and help you seek a favorable outcome.

At The Law Offices of James Angelino, I believe in my clients and always give them my very best. I will work tirelessly to help you avoid the harsh consequences of a robbery conviction in Texas.

If you’ve been arrested and charged with robbery, you need legal representation you can count on. I care about my clients and their concerns. I have the legal experience you need to get your case dismissed and the charges dropped.

Handling Serious Robbery Cases

I can defend you against charges such as:

  • Robbery: Second-degree felony: Punishable from two years to 20 years in the Texas Department of Corrections and up to a $10,000 fine.
  • Aggravated robbery: First-degree felony: Punishable from five years to 99 years and/or life in the Texas Department of Corrections and up to a $10.000 fine.

Robbery is defined as the stealing of property by either physical force or the threat of physical force. Very simply put, robbery is a theft with the use of force or threat of force. This means that if you threaten someone with force, while in the commission of a theft, you can still be charged. You also may be charged with robbery if you push a security officer while trying to flee after committing a shoplift. The major difference between robbery and burglary is the use of force.

Avoid Lifelong Consequences

Even after you are done with your case, a felony conviction can haunt you for the rest of your life. Criminal charges on your record, especially violent criminal charges, can stop you from finding a job, receiving financial aid or even renting an apartment. Your criminal history will indicate an increased liability for those people, which can get in the way of you leading a crime-free future. Now, this is where the help of an experienced criminal defense attorney comes in.
