Criminal weapons charges are an area of practice where Attorney Le is experienced and qualified and can obtain exceptional results for his clients.
A weapons charge can include quite a broad number of criminal offenses, ranging from possession of a concealed weapon to assault with a deadly weapon. At times, certain weapons charges can be added as enhancements, additional penalties, on a sentence for a conviction for another crime, such as robbery or domestic violence.
Not all weapons charges involve guns; in fact California law leaves “deadly weapon” open to a broad interpretation. For instance, a knife, blunt object or even a hand or foot could be deemed a deadly weapon in California. At the Law Offices of Jennifer Le, some of the types of weapons charges that we handle include:
When arrested and facing criminal charges, there is no question that you will need a defense lawyer in order to have any chance of avoiding a conviction and harsh penalties. Although some weapons charges (such as possession of a firearm) may be misdemeanor offenses, other weapons charges are felonies and may result in up to 20 years or more added on to your prison sentence for another crime.
