NYC Weapons Charges Attorney
Weapons charge penalties in New York can be quite severe, especially when it comes to illegal firearm possession and use. New York has some of the strictest positions on weapons in the entire nation. It’s important to remember that every case is unique, and the specific circumstances of your arrest, any prior convictions, and a number of other factors will also play a strong role in determining your case’s outcome. Maryam Jahedi, New York weapons charges attorney, is here to help assess your options and will always fight for your best interests.
What Is Considered a Weapon in NY?
It’s important that you understand that a “weapon” is not only guns and firearms. “Weapons” also include explosives, ammunition, dart guns, knives, stun guns, knuckles, as well as swords.
Is An Out-Of-State Permit Valid in New York?
New York’s strict laws can easily catch those who own weapons off-guard, especially when they hold out-of-state permits. In New York, out-of-state permits are not considered valid; therefore, even a permit holder can face harsh charges for illegally possessing a weapon. Occasionally, people can even face charges simply for being in proximity of illegal weapons, even if it does not belong to them. It’s important that you have an experienced NYC weapons charges attorney to defend you from these stringent laws. New York Penal Law allows for varying penalties and punishments dependent upon the specific facts of the weapons offense, with many penalties call for a minimum mandatory prison sentence.
