Board-Certified Criminal Defense Representation In Central Florida

We Can Help You Fight Weapons Charges

Weapons charges can result from a number of different types of situations. They either involve a firearm or some other type of weapon. Florida law lists a variety of specific types of weapons that can be the basis for a weapons charge, including:

  • Knives
  • Brass knuckles
  • Pepper spray or other chemical weapons
  • Billy clubs

But, the definition can be expanded to include a wide variety of devices depending on their use.

A Heated Moment Can Cause Serious Consequences

Many weapons charges result from domestic situations becoming heated and people making split-second decisions to grab a knife from a kitchen drawer or some other type of weapon. A person can be charged with a weapons charge such as improper exhibition of a dangerous weapon without having threatened the other person. An error in judgment like that can end up being charged as first-class misdemeanors and carry up to 12 months in jail and $1,000 fine.

These are serious charges and need to be taken so. Even though it may have been a moment of poor judgment, the law is not going to care and you could be facing up to a year in jail. Securing skilled criminal defense representation is essential.
