Like any other criminal offence, firearm offences have serious consequences. Such offences carry mandatory minimum jail sentences. Moreover, any firearms offence – no matter how serious or trivial – carries the real risk of a permanent criminal record, which can impact your personal and professional life. A criminal record can make it harder to enter certain professions, get a job, or to even travel to the United States of America.
Dealing with such offences involves a persuasive defence lawyer who can convey your story and present your defence through cross-examination, by preparing you to testify, and by using the law and the facts to persuasively argue your defence.
