GUNS AND WEAPONS OFFENSES
Protect Yourself: Expert Legal Assistance for Gun-Related Charges in California
California's strict firearm laws can lead to criminal charges for individuals who unknowingly violate them. Possessing a firearm that is considered illegal or transporting it improperly can result in serious consequences. Even being in an argument or defending oneself while in possession of a firearm can lead to criminal charges. If you or a loved one is facing any type of gun-related charge, it's important to seek expert legal advice.
California has some of the most restrictive firearms bans and gun regulations in the entire Country. A person can unknowingly fall into the trap of possessing a gun that is technically illegal under state law. (For example possession of what is referred to as an assault weapon, like an AR-15). Or it could be as simple as illegally transporting a weapon because it was not stored properly under California law. Or merely having a firearm or other weapon present with you when you were in an argument or having to defend yourself, could lead to criminal charges. In any of these occasions if you or a loved one is accused of violating any type of gun law, you should seek expert advice. Lloyd & Coulter is experienced in these matters and can assist you in handling any type of firearm or weapon case. Call today for a free and confidential consultation.
