PC 211 Robbery Defense (First & Second Degree)
Robbery requires taking personal property from someone else against their will using force or fear. We challenge witness identification accuracy, evaluate surveillance footage, and dispute claims of force or intimidation.

Residential burglary (First Degree) is an automatic strike offense, while commercial burglary (Second Degree) covers entering a business with intent to steal. Proving lack of intent at the time of entry is a cornerstone burglary defense.
