New York Gun Crime Defense Attorney
Charged with a weapon crime in Manhattan?
There are so many different types of weapons charges that you could possibly face in New York. For example, even if you are holding an item that is not normally used as a weapon (for example, a cooking utensil or walking stick) in a manner that appears threatening or if you use such item as a weapon, you could be facing weapons charges.
Of course, the more deadly the weapon that you use, the more severe the charges could be. If you are found in possession of a deadly firearm and you don’t have the proper license, you could be facing a felony charge. If you have an unlicensed, loaded gun outside of your place of business or your place of residence, you could be forced to spend a minimum of 3.5 years in jail.
Gun crimes are extremely serious in New York. As soon as you have been charged with a gun crime, it is very important that you speak with an experienced and aggressive attorney who can offer you the legal assistance that you need.
