Weapons Charges

At Owens & Perkins, we know that a person charged with a Weapons Charge may not even realize that their behavior was criminal. These are very often cases involving complicated factual issues that may require an intensive, thorough review of computer sales records and other evidence. Owens & Perkins has experienced, effective Attorneys to represent you in these types of cases.

First, every aspect of your case needs to be investigated. From interviewing eyewitnesses and other potential witnesses to reviewing any physical evidence, our Attorneys will strive to evaluate the strength of the case against you and develop any and all potential defenses. A person charged with a Weapons Charge may be the victim of the actual criminal who has framed the person charged. This takes an outside investigation beyond the investigation conducted by the police.

Next, we will discuss the outcome of the investigation with you, and together decide on the best course of strategy. Sometimes, when the State has a strong case, that strategy will be to negotiate for the best possible deal with the Prosecutor. This will include gathering and presenting mitigating evidence to the Prosecutor and, when possible, seeking to achieve a deal that avoids or reduces incarceration time or even avoids a criminal conviction. This evidence includes not only evidence showing any weaknesses in their case, but also evidence of your good character that shows why you should not be treated like a common criminal.

If, on the other hand, you are innocent or there are solid defenses to the charges, we may elect to proceed to trial. If that is the path chosen, our experienced trial Attorneys will fight for you. This includes filing any Pre-Trial Motions to limit the evidence that may be admissible against you, as well as preparing the case for trial to present to a jury or judge in a light most favorable to you.
