Understanding robbery allegations
Section 343 describes several forms of robbery, including theft connected with violence or threats, assault with intent to steal, and stealing while armed with an offensive weapon or imitation. The exact form alleged matters because the necessary proof is not identical in every case.
Preparing your robbery defence consultation
Use the documents for your own matter to guide the discussion. Depending on the circumstances, Karandeep can review:
- The reliability of identification, including lighting, timing, and observations
- Video, location evidence, communications, and the alleged sequence of events
- The connection between any property-taking and alleged violence or threat
- The alleged role of each person and any available defence
What to do before you contact us
Keep court and release paperwork and tell the office about any detention or hearing date. Preserve records relevant to your whereabouts. Avoid contacting witnesses or discussing the evidence publicly while seeking legal advice.
Explain the practical concerns behind your Etobicoke enquiry
Alongside the allegation, make a short list of the work, family, or travel questions prompting you to seek advice from Etobicoke. Bring the documents behind those questions. Where several notices are involved, keep each complete rather than combining instructions from different proceedings.
Check the current attendance information on your documents instead of using a court address saved from a previous case. Call the Brampton office to agree on consultation arrangements and ask how detailed records should be shared. The first online message can stay brief and avoid sensitive evidence.
Identify the Toronto court before leaving Etobicoke
When your documents specify 10 Armoury Street, the official Toronto court page provides the location’s contact details. Check your actual appearance instructions rather than relying on a saved address from an earlier case or an assumption based on your neighbourhood.
Official information for Toronto’s 10 Armoury Street location
Follow the instructions for your particular proceeding. A published video link does not mean you may attend remotely when an in-person appearance is required. If the location or attendance method is unclear, confirm it with your lawyer or the court.
