Las Vegas Weapons Charge Attorney
Defending Against Nevada Weapon Offenses
Criminal offenses involving weapons are most often extremely serious, resulting in felony charges and mandatory terms of imprisonment in a Nevada state correctional facility. Weapons charges may vary drastically depending upon the offense itself, whether anyone was injured and the actual weapon involved. The use or possession of a weapon in the commission of a crime also acts as an enhancement, meaning the defendant will face increased penalties if he or she is convicted. A Las Vegas criminal attorney at the De Castroverde Law Group may be able to help you if you have been arrested for any type of weapons offense. Our experienced attorneys understand how to deal with such matters as:
- Convicted felon in possession of a firearm;
- Illegal weapon possession;
- Possession of an illegal weapon or firearm;
- Unlawful sale or distribution of firearms;
- Brandishing a firearm or other deadly weapon;
- Use of a deadly weapon in the commission of a crime;
- Aggravated assault (assault with a deadly weapon);
- Domestic violence involving a weapon; and
- Possession of a concealed weapon
Being convicted of a weapons offense may mean that you will lose your freedom, as well as your right to possess firearms in the future. Your employment and reputation may also be adversely affected.
