Our firm has defended people against weapons violations charges such as these:
- Illegal possession of a gun after a felony conviction
- Selling guns to a juvenile
- Illegal gun sales
- Possession of a weapon when committing another crime
- Lying when applying for a gun permit
- Possessing a firearm with an obliterated or altered serial number
Many of these charges may carry mandatory minimum sentences. For example, a person convicted of drug possession with intent to deliver while in possession of a firearm may receive a five-year prison sentence. Our task in weapons violations cases is to keep clients out of jail. We fight hard to reach the goal.
