Robbery

If you have received a Minnesota robbery charge, you are facing the crime of seizing property through violence or intimidation. More precisely robbery was historically defined as taking the property of another, with the intent to permanently deprive the person of that property, by means of force or fear. Robbery may also arise as a result of forced intimidation placed upon another. You likely have also been charged with another crime as such as assault, theft, firearms, criminal damage to property, or possession of stolen items.

You need a lawyer to defend you in a robbery case. A conviction for robbery carries serious penalties.  Don’t forget you can talk to your criminal defense attorney any time you are being questioned by the police.
