What Is Robbery?

Robbery is the forceful taking of someone else’s property off their person through threat of bodily injury or inflicting bodily injury.

Aggravated Robbery

Sometimes a robbery charge will be elevated to aggravated robbery, which can carry a much more severe penalty. Aggravated robbery is a first-degree felony under Texas law and can mean 5 to 99 years in state prison and fines up to $10,000. Robbery is elevated to aggravated robbery when the following occurs.

  • Defendant used a deadly weapon during the course of the robbery.
  • The victim was 65 years or older.
  • The victim was disabled physically, mentally, or developmentally.

An experienced criminal defense attorney will know how to navigate a charge of aggravated robbery. As soon as you are able, call Lucé Law, PC to speak with an attorney about your case.

Common Questions About Robbery Law

All robbery offenses are considered felonies in Texas, with no misdemeanor robbery classification in the Texas Penal Code. Prosecutors may pursue first-degree or second-degree charges after assessing the facts of each case.

The best defenses to robbery charges may include an alibi that proves you weren’t at the scene of the crime, mistaken identity, the absence of threats, and challenges to the credibility of witnesses. Your robbery attorney may also identify issues like unlawful searches and improper police procedures.

If you’re accused of a robbery, exercise your right to remain silent and speak with an experienced criminal defense attorney. Your attorney will challenge prosecution evidence and develop a defense strategy after investigating the case.

John & Jessie Say…

“ As a parent of a young child that was attacked by dog that required life flight. It is hard to say what needs to be done. We watch bills climb fast for us, not knowing how to deal with the caring for our child dealing with the county's criminal charges and making sure our child was going to be good in the future. We had different people and attorneys that were giving us their two cents. We wanted the best for our situation, Joe and his team were that. Reasons we believe they are the best for us is Joe's ability to be polite and direct is impeccable. Sandy and Kristen would return are calls and emails quickly and so compassionate to our situation, Joe was too. They helped us walk through this difficult time and were honest and upfront with us through the whole process. They would help us understand each step. With everything coming to a resolve with their expert knowledge and experience we are so happy that we were a good fit for their team and us with them. Our child took to Joe right away and was able to have the discussion with him about everything that happened. We feel like Joe never pried or was unprofessional. When we need to get ahold of anyone at the team we were able to speak with the amazing people helping us. I would 1000% say they had our family's best intentions and what is best for our child at heart. I would recommend them to anyone that is in need of their legal services. Love Joe, Sandy and Kristen plus all the others we never talked to or dealt with. Thank You.”

“ I had an out of state collection issue with my Vendor not paying me even after receiving payment from the end customer. They held on to my money for no apparent reason. But Joe Luce was able to get a settlement agreement with my Vendor to have the payment collected with an additional penalty. Joe is very calm and persistent and he will do whatever it takes to get justice for you. His team of Sandy Bahle and Kristin Bell is really great in answering all of your question in a timely manner. Very professional, helpful and courteous.”
