Robbery
Our criminal barristers specialise in robbery, armed robbery, burglary, theft and shop-lifting cases.
If you’ve been accused of any type of robbery from burglary to shoplifting, you will need an experienced criminal barrister.
This is especially true if your charge involves the use of a knife, firearm or other weapon as this will inevitably lead the prosecution to push for a greatly increased sentence.
Our criminal barristers have long been asked to represent clients accused of robbery and related offences. We guide clients through every stage of the legal process from pre-charge advice through to representing them in court and, if necessary, lodging an appeal against a conviction or against a supposed miscarriage of justice.
