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.
Preparing a consultation from Mississauga
Separate the place where you live, the place of the alleged incident, and the court listed on your documents. A Mississauga address does not settle which building you must attend. Keep the court notice beside your consultation questions so the two appointments can be planned separately.
If you are coming to the Mayfield Road office, confirm the appointment before travelling from Mississauga. Tell us whether work hours, a driving restriction, or family responsibilities affect your availability. Ask what can be discussed at the first meeting and how any remaining documents should be provided.
Check the court named on your Mississauga paperwork
If your documents name the Brampton courthouse, its listed address is 7755 Hurontario Street in Brampton. Your consultation at our Mayfield Road office and your court appearance are separate appointments.
Official Brampton court information
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.

Is every theft a robbery?
