Weapon Offenses

There are many different sections of the California Penal Code that deal with firearms/gun offenses. Many of these charges carry mandatory minimum sentences for those convicted. Other consequences may include lifelong prohibition against owning firearms. These repercussions are especially damaging for hunters or anyone whose job requires them to carry a firearm.

Depending on the facts of your circumstances, you may be facing fines and jail time. If this is not your first offense, you will likely have an even longer jail sentence if convicted.

We have the requisite knowledge and experience to defend all types of gun charges, including:

  • Unauthorized possession of a firearm

  • Handgun offenses

  • Unauthorized possession of a prohibited or restricted weapon

  • Careless storage or use or handling of a firearm

  • Pointing a firearm

  • Failure to report a lost or found firearm

Gun charges can result in a disruption of your entire life and affect your family. Given the potential for significant jail time, it is never advisable to defend these charges on your own.  Weapons possession involves a very nuanced area of law that requires a great deal of skill and legal maneuvering.  It is important for you retain a lawyer who can make nuanced arguments that contradict the elements the prosecution is trying to prove.  When you contact the Law Office of Earl Robertson III, we will take the time to understand the facts of your case and to secure you the best possible outcome.
