Possession of a Firearm by a Convicted Felon Defense Lawyer
Legal penalties for the possession of a firearm by a convicted felon are serious and include mandatory state prison sentences and may result in a permanent criminal record. If you have been arrested, you need to know that you have rights and that there may be a defense for your charges.
If your civil rights were violated during the search of your car, home or other property and evidence was seized illegally, I will hold the police accountable and help to preserve your constitutionally-guaranteed rights.
