Understanding 1st and 2nd Degree Robbery Charges

Although robbery is generally defined as taking another person's property through fear or force, the defendant must actually have done so in the presence of the victim. Robbery is generally charged as first or second degree robbery.

First-degree robbery involves thievery from an inhabited home, an individual at an ATM, or taking a commercial vehicle. Second-degree robbery are cases that do not reach the same criminal level. In some cases, when an individual has been charged with robbery, it can be proven that the item was stolen while the supposed robber had an alibi. There are a variety of options that we will consider, depending on the details of your case.

    "He will go above and beyond to get the results that you are seeking."
    Chris is an outstanding lawyer. He fought hard for my husband to get his charge for a DWI dropped and of course, he was successful in doing so. He cares about his clients and will go above and beyond to get the results that you are seeking.

    "I could not have received any better counsel."
    Mr. Hesse assisted me as local counsel on a very difficult federal case. I could not have received any better counsel. On time, on task, and on the spot with guidance and advice. Highly Recommended!

    "Chris was an absolute professional in the courtroom"
    I sat 2nd chair with Mr. Hesse on a Possession of Marijuana case in April of 2014. Chris was an absolute professional in the courtroom. He was able to narrow down on the proper issues during jury selection and succeeded with the suppression of the Marijuana in the case. Judges are reluctant to grant suppressions, but Chris was able to get it done! At that point, the government had no other option than to dismiss the case. Had it not been for Chris' ability to spot a fatal flaw in the government's case, his client may have been wrongfully convicted. I have no doubt Chris will work hard on your case to expose the government just as he did in our case.
