People found in possession of weapons face extraordinary penalties both in U.S. state courts and in the Federal courts.  This is no time to hire an inexperienced lawyer. We have had a great deal of experience and success at dealing with these issues. Give us a call. We can help.

Both the Federal Government and U.S. have extensive and often conflicting codes that purport to control use and possession of firearms. Offenses under the U.S. Penal Code §12000 - §12809 are described in an extraordinary code covering hundreds of pages. The offense range from the simple to the very serious - as can the sentences for those convicted under these statutes.

Because the defense of gun cases often touches on Fourth Amendment issues. How the evidence of the firearm violation was collected, and whether the search and seizure of the evidence passes constitutional standards is an important question.

 We vigorously pursue the answers to these questions.

A good investigation can more often than not result in finding a key alibi witness, or establishing that a potential eyewitness identification has fatal weaknesses, or that you acted in self-defense.

With a good investigation, your attorney can prepare your case for trial from a position of strength and confidence rather than weakness and uncertainty.

Your freedom and record are too important to entrust to an inexperienced attorney.

We have successfully defended hundreds of people in all areas of criminal law.

We work with experienced Criminal Defense Attorney's in each state. We provide state and federal Criminal Defense Attorney referrals to individuals facing major crimes.

Have you been charged with an unlawful possession of a firearm?

When people are charged with a crime they face the prospect of incarceration. Ultimately that can bring with it probation and parole, large fines, forced registration with law enforcement, and perhaps most damaging, a record that severely hinders even the most rehabilitated - sometimes for the rest of their lives.

What's worse is that the damage can extend even to the accused's family in many ways. Finally, where a crime has been perpetrated the accused must acknowledge the damage that may have been done to any innocent victim. While we don't claim the ability to undo harms already done, we are here to provide finest and most ethical legal defense you'll find anywhere.
