Weapons Charges

Effective Defense of Weapons Charges

Are you facing weapons charges in Florida? If so, it is important that you retain a criminal defense attorney who will fight to protect you as soon as possible.

For an effective defense against weapons charges, contact the criminal defense attorneys at Bauer Crider & Parry in Tampa, Clearwater or Port Richey for a free initial consultation about your gun charge case.

Weapons charges carry minimum mandatory sentences, including:
· 10 years for unlawful possession of a firearm
· 20 years for unlawful discharge of a firearm
· Life in prison for wounding a person with a firearm

These sentences are mandatory. If they are not waived, they must be imposed by the court.

Our Clearwater criminal defense lawyers will go to work immediately. Often we are able to negotiate a reasonable outcome before any weapons charges are filed.

People facing weapons charges frequently are facing charges for other criminal offenses. Carrying a firearm is an aggravating factor that can boost other offenses from a misdemeanor to a felony.

Developing a Strategy for Success

We will sort out all of the charges against you and work to get them reduced or dismissed. Then we will develop a (strategy) for defending you against any remaining charges. Skill at sorting through the charges and developing a strong defense requires an experienced criminal attorney.

The fact that your fingerprints were found on a firearm does not automatically make you guilty as charged. We will question how the government obtained the evidence against you. Were you a victim of an illegal search and seizure? If so, the evidence against you cannot be used in court.

To discuss the specifics of your case, please contact the experienced criminal defense lawyers at Bauer Crider & Parry.
