Cases We Handle

Criminal Defense

Facing Weapons Charges?

Nevada prosecutors aggressively pursue convictions for weapon crime cases. If convicted, you could very well face imprisonment. Additionally, you may lose your right to own a firearm in the future. If you are facing charges involving guns or other illegal weapons, it is important to protect your legal rights.

We have extensive experience defending clients against a wide range of weapon charges, including those involving:

Possession of an unlawful weapon
Carrying a concealed weapon
Stealing firearms from military members
Convicted felon in possession of a firearm
Illegal sale of firearms
Use of a deadly weapon in the commission of a crime

It is important to remember that when a weapon is used in the commission of another crime, such as robbery or a drug transaction, the penalties can be enhanced, or increased dramatically. For a state crime, judges can add from one to 20 years to a sentence. For a federal crime, they can add from seven to 10 years.

Our lawyers understand the importance of taking aggressive legal action to protect our clients from the harsh consequences of a weapons crime conviction. We have successfully defended hundreds of clients against criminal charges and are prepared to stand up for your rights.
