Weapons Attorney in New York City

Throughout New York and particularly in New York City, law enforcement is on a mission to get as many handguns and other weapons off the streets as possible. Although this goal is a noble one, there are many situations where an individual may be wrongfully arrested for weapon possession or another weapon offense. A person may be arrested in violation of their Constitutional rights or may have lacked criminal intent and is yet now facing a situation where he or she is in danger of facing misdemeanor or felony weapon charges.

This includes cases ranging from firearm possession all the way to assault with a deadly weapon or murder. We handle cases that involve illegal conduct involving a firearm or other weapon itself as well as other criminal offenses that were allegedly committed while the defendant was in possession of or discharged a weapon.

NYC Criminal Lawyer

New York state and federal gun laws may be exceedingly complex. With the resources and legal knowledge to competently handle your case, a lawyer at our offices can work to conduct a complete investigation into the matter. For example, we may uncover evidence that you were subjected to a search and seizure without a lawful warrant or probable cause. This may mean that the evidence discovered in the search (a firearm or other weapon) is inadmissible in court. This is just one way that a competent attorney may be able to successfully challenge weapon offense charges - there are many others.
