Gun Charges Attorney in Canton & Marietta

An individual convicted of violating gun laws can face a jail or prison sentence, large fines, and probation depending on the circumstances of the violation. Punishment may increase if the offender has prior convictions, involvement with illegal drug or gang activities, or the presence of minors at the time of the offense.

Common gun charges are as follows:

• Possession of a firearm by a convicted felon
• Carrying a concealed weapon without a license
• Involvement with stolen or illegal guns, unlawful gun sales or trafficking
• Use or possession of a gun on federal property

A weapons charge may cause a job loss or the inability to seek employment in the military, security or other fields that require a high level of trust. A weapons charge may jeopardize the ability of some to retain a professional license in a chosen career. A gun charge becomes an automatic felony if the offender used the gun to commit a crime or has a record of a previous felony conviction.
