Chicago Armed Robbery Defense Attorney
Have you been charged with armed robbery?
Under Illinois law, a person will be charged with armed robbery if, during the commission of the robbery, he or she is armed with a dangerous weapon. The weapon does not necessarily have to be a firearm, but it does have to be a weapon capable of inflicting bodily harm and be foreign to the crime scene. Armed robbery is a Class X felony that carries a mandatory sentence of 6 to 60 years in prison. Under Illinois State Law, there is no possibility of probation for a person convicted of a Class X felony. Under certain circumstances, a conviction for a Class X felony can carry a prison sentence that can be extended by 30 to 60 years in prison.
