Los Angeles Weapons Charges Defense Attorneys

Southern California Criminal Defense Lawyers

Being charged for a weapons crime is taken extremely seriously by arresting officers, law enforcement and the California courts.  Any person that has illegally used any type of weapon is an extreme threat to society.  A weapons charge however small or large is often coupled with many other serious misdemeanor or felony offenses.  A person convicted of a weapons charge in most cases has been in trouble with the law previously. There are specific requirements in the state of California for owning or purchasing a firearm. In addition, there are many types of weapons that are illegal to have or purchase in the United States.  Some of those weapons are Chinese stars, brass knuckles, certain knives, sub-machine guns, sawed off shotguns and other dangerous and banned weapons.

Murder is often associated with a weapon and so it is critical to law enforcement officers and state prosecutors to stop any illegal use of weapons right from the start. Not only will you most likely be facing a felony charge, but you are more than likely to face incarceration and heavy fines.  In addition, you may lose your legal right to own or operate a handgun and you will also receive a criminal conviction on your record for life.  It is most important that if you are facing weapons charges, that you retain the services of a knowledgeable defense attorney immediately.  At the Law Offices of James E.
