Gun Crimes

In New York and across the country, gun laws have been in the spotlight. The NYPD has made it their priority to get illegal weapons off the streets and apprehend people who commit gun crimes. New York Gun Possession Laws are among the strictest in the Country.

Every firearm crime in New York carries a potential sentence of prison and the most serious crimes involve mandatory incarceration. It is critical to contact an experienced Criminal Defense Attorney to help.

While there are Constitutional protections allowing citizens to own and possess guns, the laws for ownership and use are complex both in this state and throughout the nation.

If you have been charged with any gun offense – whether for having a Semi-Automatic, assault weapon, Ghost Gun, or “old school” revolver, an experienced New York Attorney can help explain not only the crimes, but implement and identify the right strategy to minimize your legal exposure. Aided by an experienced Criminal Defense Attorney who can work with prosecutors or confront them, your opportunity and likelihood to have your charges lowered or dismissed, or the legality of your arrest and search successfully challenged, is far greater than with counsel who has limited experience navigating the justice system.
