IMPORTANT INFORMATION
FROM THE DEFENSE LAWYER FOR ROBBERY
Professional defense service begins with a consultation to learn about the investigation and arrest.
The effective defense of a robbery charge requires extensive knowledge of the applicable laws and procedures.
An accusation of robbery arises when a person allegedly takes something from another person by the use of threat or force.
The use of force may involve physical aggression, a weapon, or menacing words (Penal Code section 211).
A robbery charge may also arise during the course of a petty theft or shoplifting action where some degree of force is used by the accused during the theft or during the attempt to escape apprehension.
This is called an Estes robbery.
There are two degrees of robbery.
First degree robbery occurs if the robbery is of any driver or passenger in a vehicle, or on a bus, taxi, or other public transportation, robbery in a home or a business that is occupied, and robbery of any person who has recently used an ATM.
Punishment may include up to nine years in prison.
All other robberies are generally considered of the second degree with punishment up to 5 years.
Robbery is considered a serious violent felony, also known as a strike offense (Penal Code 667.5)
The procedures to get a person out of custody depend on the circumstances of the alleged crime.
The judge may also consider the clients age, health, employment, and support from family and friends.

The defense of a robbery charge begins by meeting with the client to learn about the investigation and arrest.

- Unreliable eye witness identification
- No proof beyond a reasonable doubt
- Violation of the right to remain silent
- Incomplete police investigation
SKILLFUL RESOLUTION OF THE ROBBERY CASE
The determination of how and when to best resolve a case depends on what is in the best interest of the client.
Petition to Dismiss. One way to resolve a case is by way of a petition to dismiss due to a violation of a constitutional right.
Sometimes the police do not comply with the United States Constitution during a detention, search or a seizure.
When this happens, people have a recourse in the courts.

Diversion. Diversion is a form of pretrial procedure in which a person accused of a crime does not enter a plea of guilty.
Instead the client enrolls in a program of counseling to help remedy the alleged behavior leading to the original arrest.
Diversion allows the client the opportunity to avoid a conviction and to keep his or her record clean.
There are four types of diversion. Drug Diversion, Military Diversion, Mental Health Diversion, and Misdemeanor Diversion.
Call our office to learn whether you qualify for diversion.
A plea bargain is a pretrial agreement between the criminal justice lawyer, his client, the prosecutor and the judge that most often includes dismissal or reduction of the charges and no time in prison or jail.
Attorney Pflaum gets excellent plea bargains by emphasizing the strengths of the defense case, exposing weaknesses in the prosecutions file, and presenting favorable information about his client to the judge and prosecution
Some cases, depending on the clients preference and the state of the evidence, may go to trial.
Winning the jury trial begins by selecting a good jury, presenting strong testimony and evidence in support of the defense, aggressively cross examining prosecution witnesses, and finishing the case with a compelling argument in support of the right verdict: Not Guilty.
