Charged With a Theft Crime? Put Our Attorneys in Your Corner.

Robbery is a common occurrence in Georgia. It is considered a crime of violence as well as a property crime, which society takes very seriously. The well-known purse snatching crime so often seen in movies is included in this category along with hold ups, shoplifting and carjacking. Persons accused of this crime may be prosecuted in a Georgia court or in federal court depending upon where it took place. The term robbery means the taking of another's property by force or threat. Anyone charged with committing a robbery is facing serious penalties and should seek the assistance of a Savannah robbery defense attorney to challenge the charges.

The Penalties for Robbery in Georgia

Robbery is charged as a federal offense if the crime was committed on federal property or involved an institution of federal interest, such as the U.S. Post Office, an airport, or a bank, otherwise the case would be heard in state court. Under Georgia law, the penalty for the crime of robbery can include 1 to 20 years in prison, restitution, fines, community service and probation.

If a weapon is used, the charge becomes armed robbery with a prison term ranging from 10 years to life. Under some circumstances, a death sentence is possible.

    “Extremely Professional”
    We would like to thank you for everything that you and your staff have done for our family. The situation we were faced with was something we could never have imagined and felt extremely lost with nowhere to turn. After our conversation and then meeting with you and Shannon for the first time, Matthew and I walked out of your office feeling 100% safe and confident that you would do everything in your power to give us the best chance in overcoming this unfortunate situation. You and your staff have gone above and beyond our expectations. You have Matthew a second chance to start over and allow him to continue with his studies and become an adult. I cannot say enough about your staff. Shannon, Carli, and Natalie, always made us feel like we were your only client. The attention that they gave us was something I would have never expected. They were always understanding, courteous, and very professional. I had to learn that this process takes time and your staff was always available to help me understand and to ensure our confidence. If anyone we know, is faced with a situation that you can help with, we will give your firm the highest recommendation possible. I can honestly say that Shannon, Carli, Natalie, and yourself are angels from heaven that were sent to us in our most desperate time of need. We thank you from the bottom of our hearts

    “Without Courtney I May Have Lost Everything!”
    “Throughout the process she communicated, received and answered my calls and questions promptly, and made me feel like a person, not a case number.”
    Van W.
    “Went above and beyond”
    A “bad” mistake on our part could have put us in a very bad situation and could have also ruined our business reputation. He not only helped us clear our charges but his caring demeanor assured us we had the best attorney. We not only consider Cris as our family attorney, we now consider him a wonderful friend.
    Past Client
    “Always Felt Comfortable”
    I can't thank you enough for all of your help over the past few months and for all the work you've put into my case. Shannon, Carli & Natalie along with the rest of the office made my family and me feel valued and appreciated when we needed it the most. We were always comfortable and confident in you guys because you always kept our heads up. Thanks again!
    Past Client
    “Absolutely Amazing”
    “Being out of state they always kept me informed on everything that was going on with my case and were very quick to respond back if I had any questions or concerns.”
    Kendall T.
    “Each person I spoke with was able to answer my questions.”
    I did not know what to anticipate, as I had never needed to use an attorney in the past; however, they did go above my expectations. I cannot praise Carli enough. She was patient, non-judgmental, efficient and able to answer any question I had. As I live out of town, and was very nervous and naive about all of this, I could not have received any better representation.
