Vista Weapons Defense Lawyer
Guns, Assault Rifles, & Weapons Defense
Gun charges include having a concealed firearm, unlawfully discharging a firearm, brandishing a firearm, carrying a concealed and loaded firearm in a vehicle, unlawful sale of a firearm, felon in possession of a firearm, and other offenses. National Firearms Act violations include having a machine gun, a silencer, or other prohibited item. California violations include possessing an assault weapon, switchblade, or other prohibited weapon, or not registering an assault weapon. Penalties may include jail or prison, fines, loss of the right to own a deadly weapon, and other penalties.
Because the penalties are severe with weapons charges, it is imperative to hire an experienced Vista, CA weapons defense attorney as soon as possible. If you’ve been arrested on assault charges, it is important not to talk to anyone including law enforcement until you have an attorney present who fully understands your rights and can guide you through the criminal proceedings.
Scott R. Cadzow will evaluate your unique situation, review your charges, review any evidence and documentation and after consulting with you, recommend a defense strategy geared towards maintaining your freedom and receiving the best possible outcome for your case.
