Armed robbery charges are most assuredly not only a felony, but also a violent felony offense. The penalties can be extremely severe, especially if you’re charged with robbery in the first degree, which carries a minimum penalty of five years of upstate incarceration.

An individual may also be charged with first-degree armed robbery if they have used a deadly weapon, while committing the crime. In New York, the term deadly weapon can refer to:

A loaded firearm
A billy club
Brass or metal knuckles
Daggers
A blackjack
Certain knives, including pilum ballistic knives, gravity knives, or switchblades

Michael is absolutely amazing as is his staff! He is not only a spectacular attorney, but he is a wonderful human being. His professionalism transcends words and he makes you feel cared for and is wonderful at putting your psyche at ease. Moreover, his connections and abilities in the courtroom is where Michael Matera truly shines through. In nearly 40 years of life, I have never needed an attorney and when I recently found myself in need of one, he came highly recommended from multiple sources. I would and I intend on, referring Michael to anyone in need of an attorney who has your best interest at heart and will fight for you for every inch. I also wanted to state that Mr. Matera is available and accommodating anytime I need to speak with him. I hope this review helps anyone and everyone who is in need of someone to stand up and fight for you when you make a mistake and need someone in your corner. Thank you again, Michael, you really are a top notch lawyer and person. – Christian Z.
