If you were accompanying the perpetrator, you were either an accomplice, and can be charged the same as the robber, or you "aided and abetted" the felony. If you were simply a dis-interested bystander/witness, no.

What is a Robbery Lawyer?

A robbery lawyer specializes in law related to robbery. They might represent defendants or plaintiffs in robbery cases. Under some circumstances, they may also work in a more broad field of law, with a specialization in robbery cases. Robbery is a specific form of theft. In order for theft to be considered robbery, the defendant must be found guilty of taking property that does not lawfully belong to them in a violent manner. This could mean that they use physical violence in order to obtain the property, or it could mean that they threaten to use physical violence in order to obtain the property. A robbery lawyer may defend a perpetrator by attempting to demonstrate that the manner in which the property was taken was nonviolent. They may also attempt to prove that the defendant had a legal right to the property, or that the defendant had no intent to inflict or threaten violence, or to take the property. On the other hand, in some jurisdictions an individual can still be found guilty of robbery if they attempted to take property that did not legally belong to them, even if they failed to actually take the property. It is not uncommon for people to confuse robbery with other types of theft. A robbery attorney would explain that if there is no violence, or threat of violence, involved, it would constitute a different form of theft. If violence is not involved, it is not considered robbery, although it may still be a felony depending on the value of the property. In order for a person to be found guilty of robbery, several conditions typically have to be met. First, the individual has to either threaten violence, or commit violence, during the criminal act. Second, they must either attempt or succeed in taking property which they are not legally entitled to. Third, these actions must typically take place intentionally. In other words, if the offender believed that the property belonged to them, they may not be found guilty. The same is true if they did not know that they were taking property at all. If they were unaware of the threat of violence that they were posing, or committed violence in an accidental manner, they may also be found not guilty of robbery. More serious charges are armed robbery or aggravated robbery. Armed robbery is robbery that involves the use of a weapon. Aggravated robbery is robbery with the use of a deadly weapon.

Is there a real law about being guilty by association I live in Albuquerque New Mexico and just don't know where to look for the answer?

The real law on guilt by association is a matter of what prosecutors and police can scare you into pleading guilty to. You may associate with whomever you please. This is your first amendment right. There are laws against "criminal association" (like the mafia or street gangs) whose purpose is criminal activity. Also it is illegal to "conspire" to commit a crime. Simply being with another person during the commission of a crime could make you an "accessory" if you helped them in any way to commit or to conceal the crime. You might also become liable for their crime if you were involved in another crime at the same time. An example of this is the "felony murder rule". For example if you were committing a robbery with someone and that other person caused a death, you would also be guilty of murder.
