Types of Weapons Charges in San Ramon

In California, most people have the right to possess a gun. However, there are limits to when a person can carry their gun and how they should carry it. California has some of the most comprehensive gun laws in the nation, so a person might find themselves in violation of one even when they do not realize they are breaking the law. In most instances, weapons charges are felonies in California.

Common California weapons charges include the following:

Because many of these crimes are felonies, they have the potential to change the rest of a person’s life upon conviction. In addition to prison time and heavy fines, a felony stays on a person’s record for the rest of their life. This could create difficulty finding a job, obtaining a place to live, or accessing other vital opportunities.

Fighting Evidence of Weapons Violations

Search and seizure is highly regulated; in other words, there are few specific circumstances wherein law enforcement may search and seize your property. In many instances, law enforcement fails to collect evidence in a way which respects search and seizure laws.

His experience is often the difference-maker between success and failure for our clients.

When Do Penalties for Weapons Charges Increase?

In some instances, weapons charges are enhanced if a person is accused of multiple offenses or receive them in tandem with other charges. For example, if a person is a repeat offender or is accused of a felony while in possession of a firearm, they will have likely face enhanced penalties.

In some instances, these increased penalties could be an additional 10 to 20 years in prison. Increased weapons charges can land a person in prison for the rest of their life, so these individuals need the help of an experienced San Ramon weapons charges attorney.
