Defending Clients Against Weapons Charges
With random car jackings taking place at an alarming rate, and the increased incidence of armed robberies and home invasions, more people are carrying weapons for personal protection than ever before. With a rise in the number of individuals carrying guns comes a rise in the number of arrests for doing so.
Possessing a weapon is legal and therefore not a crime in many instances, even if you are not licensed by the state to do so. In fact, carrying a weapon is one of the more defensible offenses in the Texas Penal Code.
At the Law Offices of Casey Garrett & Kirk Oncken, in Houston, our criminal defense lawyers have represented hundreds of individuals who have been charged with weapons possession. When our law firm represents you on a weapons case, you can rest assured two things: 1) We know the law on weapon possession, and 2) Our knowledge means you have a fighting chance of successfully defending the accusation and getting your weapon back.
