Fort Myers Robbery Attorney

If the theft of another’s property or money is committed by force, Florida State legislation considers it a criminal act of robbery. While the details of a robbery description can change depending on what was taken and how it was taken, and whether or not a deadly weapon was involved at some point, all forms of robbery are serious violations that are punishable by strict sentencing. Anyone accused of robbery should act quickly to retain reliable legal counsel.

Robbery Cases We Handle

We can represent clients facing all forms of robbery charges, including:

• Armed robbery: Using a firearm, gun, or another form of a deadly weapon in a menacing manner to take property; it is considered a 1^st degree felony and can carry a life sentence if convicted.
• Weapon crime with robbery: Using an object that is not inherently deadly to commit a robbery; another 1^st degree felony with possible sentencing of 30 years prison time and a $10,000 fine paid to the state.
• Simple robbery: Using force to take another’s property but not using any sort of weapon or object to do so; you could be incarcerated for 15 years and pay a $10,000 fine if you are convicted of this 2^nd degree felony.
