Robbery
Similar to theft, robbery is the act of stealing from another, however robbery offences include the use of violence, force or the threat of violence. Robbery charges can also be made through an assault with the intent to steal. In some cases, having a weapon during a theft is enough to create a robbery charge.
Conviction of robbery under the criminal code is a serious offence and you will receive jail time and a criminal record. Depending on the circumstances of the robbery your charges can be increased or compounded. The maximum sentence for robbery can be life in prison.
Being charged with robbery does not mean you will be convicted of robbery. In Canada, the presumption of innocence is a guiding principle of the law, and all accused people have rights that need to be protected. If you are accused of robbery, you have a right to an attorney and the right to reasonable bail. You cannot be denied bail without just cause. You are also entitled to a bail hearing within 24 hours if a justice is available, or as soon as possible when they become available.

- I was in need of some legal advice just over a year ago …. And after searching for a lawyer who was nearby to my residence … the name Steve Norton came up … and I couldn’t have been more pleased with the outcome of my case ( criminal harassment ) After a couple of meetings with him … he assured me that my charge would be withdrawn if I agreed to sign a peace bond for a specific amount of time. Which is EXACTLY what I wanted ! The charge was in fact dropped with no criminal record on file. I couldn’t have been more happier with the results and am very fortunate to have used him to represent myself in my case. He’s very professional … got me exactly what I was hoping for … and I highly recommend to others who are looking for the same results. Thank you very much Steve … and all the best goes out to you in your future endeavours !read moreread lessJohn Beattie10/13/2022I have worked for Norton Law for six months and Steve is the most professional lawyer I have encountered.
