Robbery Cases We’ve Handled

With over 30 years of combined experience, our Tulsa robbery defense lawyers can help with a wide range of robbery charges, including:

First Degree Robbery: This is the most severe type of robbery charge. It involves serious bodily injury, an immediate threat or fear of serious bodily injury, or a felony committed or threatened against the person during the theft.
Second Degree Robbery: Under Oklahoma law, robbery accomplished in a manner that doesn’t meet the requirements for first-degree robbery is robbery in the second degree.
Aggravated Robbery: This charge is levied when a weapon is used during the theft, causing significant fear of harm.
Bank Robbery: This is a specific type of robbery that involves theft from a bank, credit union, or any other financial institution.
Home Invasion Robbery: We defend clients accused of robbery alleged to have occurred during a home invasion.
Carjacking: This is a robbery charge specific to the act of stealing a vehicle directly from its owner, typically utilizing force or threats of force.

Oklahoma law defines robbery as the wrongful taking of personal property from another person’s possession or immediate presence, against that person’s will, by means of force or fear. We understand the severity of these charges and the potential consequences that come with a conviction. That’s why we work tirelessly to build a strong defense strategy for each of our clients, tailored to their specific case.

Robbery Penalties & Sentencing in Tulsa

Oklahoma law treats robbery as a serious offense. First degree robbery is punishable by a minimum of 10 years in prison and up to life, while second degree robbery can bring a sentence of up to ten years. First degree robbery and armed robbery are 85% crimes, meaning a person convicted must serve at least 85 percent of the sentence before becoming eligible for parole consideration. Robbery with a dangerous weapon or imitation firearm also carries a statutory minimum prison sentence. In addition to prison, a conviction can limit future job prospects, housing opportunities, and some professional licensing opportunities in the Tulsa area. We help clients understand the full scope of legal penalties and the long-term impact of a conviction.
