Texas has implemented some extremely rigid laws that strictly regulate a person’s right to possess and use a gun or other type of weapon. Violations of these laws are taken very seriously, and a conviction can lead to severe penalties and the loss of certain constitutional rights.
Many weapons violations are simple misunderstandings that involve no criminal intent whatsoever. No matter what type of charge you may be facing, it is important that you seek the advice of a qualified attorney. At Kearney Law Firm, we represent clients in a wide array of state and federal weapons cases, including the illegal possession of a firearm. Our Fort Worth defense lawyers have extensive experience with these matters, and we are committed to protecting your rights above all else.
Concealed Handgun License Violations and Weapons at the Airport
Many of the clients we represent in these cases are facing felony charges for “places weapons prohibited.” For people who have a concealed handgun license (CHL), carrying a weapon is as commonplace as carrying a cellphone. Many simply forget to remove the weapon from their personal items when they go through security and get arrested without the opportunity to explain or remedy the situation.
We have a history of obtaining favorable results for our clients in these types of cases. You can rely on us to utilize every legal resource at our disposal in an effort to avoid a conviction in your case.
In addition to CHL and places weapons prohibited violations, we also defend clients against the following weapons offenses:
