Las Vegas Criminal Defense Lawyer
It is very common for prosecutors to enhance felony or misdemeanor charges for drug possession, assault, and other violent offences with additional weapons charges. Often, the weapon is illegally seized on the suspect's property, without a proper search warrant and with no connection to the criminal investigation.
If you are facing a criminal offense that includes a weapons enhancement, talk to an attorney at the Oronoz Law Offices right away. We will work vigorously to investigate the charges and suppress illegal evidence. If you are under investigation, or think you will be charged, remember that the most important way to protect yourself is your right to remain silent. Do not say anything more to the police or prosecutor until we are at your side.
Weapons Charges and Drug Offenses
Police are quick to look for every opportunity to turn a misdemeanor drug possession charge into a felony weapons count. If you have a prior conviction, a weapons enhancement can result in a mandatory prison sentence. You need aggressive, knowledgeable criminal defense from a team that knows the strategies that will help you get the best possible outcome.
