Robbery takes place when someone commits theft and, before or at the time of doing so, uses force, or threatens to use force in order to steal from the victim. The force used must be connected with the theft to amount to the criminal offence of robbery.

Armed robbery is where a robbery takes place and a weapon, such as a firearm, is used. This is a much more serious crime, with a maximum sentence of life imprisonment, but it is also complex. Armed robbery investigations may demand large amounts of documentary, video, DNA and fingerprint evidence and multiple witnesses, as they often cross over into related offences involving organised criminal gangs, drug dealing and conspiracies.

If you are facing robbery charges or even allegations, or are suspected of involvement, it is vital to secure expert legal advice and representation from an experienced criminal defence team. Tyler Hoffman specialises in delivering a thorough defence strategy for any robbery or theft allegations, and our armed robbery solicitors have a proven track record of success.

It is vital to secure specialist legal representation at the earliest opportunity, so you don't risk facing the criminal justice system alone and can begin building your defence from the start. Speak to the criminal solicitors at Tyler Hoffman today to learn more about how we can help.

How can a solicitor defend a robbery offence?

Tyler Hoffman's specialist theft solicitors offer a range of criminal defence services for robbery offences and related criminal charges. We can start by representing clients at the police station and during any police interviews, to help them comply with the investigation without incriminating themselves.

In building a robbery defence, our main objective is to examine the prosecution's case for errors and collect evidence that challenges the Crown Prosecution Service's conclusions. If you are accused of organised crime or related charges, our specialist robbery solicitors can draw on the expertise of our wider criminal defence team to build a bespoke defence that suits your specific offence.

We will then offer expert legal representation in court proceedings, and use our extensive experience to present your defence in the strongest terms. Should you decide to plead guilty, or be found guilty, we can present mitigating circumstances during sentencing to ensure you do not receive the maximum sentence.

What is the maximum sentence for robbery?

Robbery offences are charged under the Theft Act 1968 in England and Wales, and the maximum sentence for robbery (whether armed robbery or not) is life imprisonment. It is important to seek specialist legal advice if you are accused of robbery or theft offences, as the intervention of an experienced solicitor can help you to avoid the maximum sentence.

Armed robbery offences (particularly those involving knives or guns) are likely to result in a much higher sentence, as the Sentencing Council considers these in the highest band of culpability. However, it will still be possible to present mitigating circumstances and potentially have charges or sentences reduced. The expert criminal defence lawyers at Tyler Hoffman can help you to secure the best possible outcome for your case.
