Federal Bank Robbery Defense

Bank robbery is a serious federal offense that will be harshly prosecuted. A violent crime that involves forcefully taking property or money from a federally insured bank, credit union or savings and loan association, a bank robbery conviction may result in a prison sentence of up to 20 years and/or fines. Enhanced penalties may be enforced for gun offenses relating to the robbery.

A Los Angeles federal crime attorney at Okabe & Haushalter may be able to help you if you are facing bank robbery charges or are under investigation in conjunction with a bank robbery. With modern technology making bank robbery more dangerous and difficult, working with a competent defense attorney is all the more important. There are several factors which may make the State’s case against a defendant stronger:

  • Security cameras
  • Exploding dye packs in the money
  • Marked bills
  • Locator devices
  • Silent alarms
  • Banks with other high-technology security measures

Los Angeles Bank Robbery Lawyer

A Los Angeles bank robbery defense lawyer at our firm can discuss your case with you to determine how to best approach your defense. Because bank robbery is a federal crime, you may face investigation and prosecution by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), which will have greater resources and manpower to devote to gathering evidence and information to work against you in federal court. Additionally, federal prosecutors are generally more trained, aggressive and experienced than prosecuting attorneys on the state level.

In the face of all the complexities and aggressive prosecution associated with a bank robbery charge, it is important to have a Los Angeles federal defense lawyer on your side that can provide you with a level of legal counsel which can serve to effectively protect your rights and help you avoid a conviction.
