Defending You Against Weapons Offenses in Murfreesboro and Middle Tennessee
In Tennessee, having a gun, knife or other weapon in your possession in certain circumstances can make you subject to serious criminal charges. Even if you did not use the weapon, simply having a weapon in the wrong place at the wrong time can result in a conviction, significant jail time and a lifetime criminal record.
If you face weapons charges in Tennessee, you should immediately seek the assistance of an experienced defense lawyer. At the Law Offices of Howard, Kendrick & Reynolds in Murfreesboro, we will review the charges against you and provide an aggressive defense.
Many of the people we defend against weapons charges are ordinary citizens who don't even understand how serious the charges can be.
Do I Have a Defense?
Weapons offenses, like drug charges, often involve constitutional issues. We will investigate how you came into contact with police and determine whether the police officer had probable cause to search you and seize the gun, knife or other weapon.
To determine if the search and seizure was lawful, we will analyze police reports and cross-examine the arresting officer. If the police violated your constitutional rights, we may be able to suppress the evidence. Without evidence, the case against you may be dismissed.
If the police recovered the weapon legally, our skill as negotiators can help minimize the effect of the charge on your life.
