If you’ve been charged with robbery or burglary in Houston or Harris County, the stakes are high. These are felony offenses that can lead to years in prison and a permanent criminal record.
At Parrish Law Firm, we defend clients facing theft-related charges, including aggravated robbery, simple robbery, and burglary. We help you understand the law, review the facts, and prepare a defense built around the details of your case.
These charges are often based on fast-moving events, surveillance footage, or witness statements that deserve close examination. Our team is experienced in breaking down these cases and identifying the legal, factual, and procedural issues that could make the difference.
Understanding the Charges
Aggravated Robbery
This is one of the most serious theft-related charges in Texas. It involves robbery with a deadly weapon, causing serious injury, or targeting someone who is elderly or disabled. It’s a first-degree felony and can carry a sentence of 5 to 99 years in prison.
Robbery
Robbery occurs when someone causes or threatens bodily harm while committing a theft. This is a second-degree felony in Texas. Many robbery cases turn on conflicting accounts or unclear evidence about what happened during the alleged incident.
Burglary
Burglary means entering a building or home without permission, with the intent to commit a crime inside. You don’t have to “break in” to be charged. If the state believes you entered unlawfully with criminal intent, you could face a felony burglary charge.
What We Look at in These Cases
Violating the terms of parole can send someone back to prison. We help clients maintain their parole status by representing them at parole revocation hearings and advocating for alternatives to incarceration.
- Was there clear evidence of intent to commit a crime?
- Was a weapon actually used or just mentioned?
- Were there eyewitnesses, and how reliable are their statements?
- Was the defendant properly identified in surveillance or reports?
We work to challenge the facts, suppress questionable evidence, and push back against exaggerated charges.
Local Defense with Real Experience
We represent individuals across Houston and Harris County, including cases out of Midtown, South Loop, and surrounding areas. Whether this is your first charge or you’ve been through the system before, you deserve a team that treats your case with focus and urgency.
