Pennsylvania Weapons Charges Lawyer

Guns and Weapons Charges Attorney Serving Bucks County, Lehigh County, Montgomery County and Philadelphia

Guns and weapons crimes can involve virtually any type of weapon – guns, handguns, automatic weapons and knives. Gun charges are frequently piled on top of other charges. It may be alleged that a domestic assault or sexual assault involved a gun. When this happens, penalties upon conviction are much stricter than if a gun were not involved. If you are facing guns and weapons charges, you should seek help immediately from a knowledgeable defense attorney.

At Applebaum Joachim Law Group, we believe you deserve a skilled defense. We are highly skilled in the legal defenses available to people facing gun charges. We can ensure your rights are protected at every step. Contact us Link to Contact to schedule your consultation at one of our Pennsylvania locations.

We Understand What Is At Stake.

Applebaum Joachim Law Group works hard to keep you out of jail. Our criminal defense attorneys thoroughly analyze all elements of your case, identifying police misconduct, procedural errors and other possible defenses. Did the gun belong to you? Does it meet the definition of a firearm?

If gun charges are brought in conjunction with other criminal charges, you face strict penalties. For example, if you are arrested on drug charges while in possession of a firearm, felony charges will be brought, and you will face a mandatory minimum five- year sentence if convicted.
