Weapons Charges

While Arizona is known for its permissive gun laws, the state also has some of the strictest criminal statutes regarding firearms. If you’ve been accused of illegal possession, use, or sale of a firearm, you could be facing serious consequences. At The Law Office of Joel Chorny, PLLC, I am dedicated to defending your rights and ensuring that you are treated fairly under the law.

Why You Need an Attorney for Weapons Charges

Even in a state with strong protections for gun ownership, violations of Arizona’s firearms laws can lead to significant penalties, including prison time, fines, and loss of your right to own a firearm. It’s essential to have an experienced attorney who understands the intricacies of gun laws in Arizona and can craft a defense that protects your rights. With my deep knowledge of these laws, I am prepared to challenge the prosecution’s case and fight to safeguard your future.

Building a Defense Against Firearms-Related Charges

When defending against weapons charges, the details matter. Some of the strategies we may explore include:

Challenging the legality of the search and seizure, particularly in cases where law enforcement may have overstepped or violated your rights.
Arguing for exceptions under Arizona’s gun laws, such as lawful possession or self-defense.
Disputing the facts of the case, ensuring that all evidence is properly examined and that your rights are fully protected throughout the legal process.

My goal is to provide a robust defense that considers every aspect of your case, from the arrest through to the trial.

The Complexity of Arizona’s Firearms Laws

Arizona may allow the open carry of firearms, but it also has strict laws governing who can possess guns and where they can be carried. Charges related to illegal possession, use, or sale of firearms often arise from misunderstandings of these laws or misinterpretations by law enforcement. At The Law Office of Joel Chorny, PLLC, I will work with you to clarify these complexities and develop a defense strategy tailored to your situation.

I am a firm believer in the constitutional right to bear arms, and I have successfully defended clients facing a wide range of weapons charges.

Mr. Chorny was assigned to me even though I had offered to hire him. His integrity with how he handled my case was exactly how I would’ve expected. He’s well established and has accreditation from some our nations finest institutions and isn’t to no surprise why he admires “Ironman” because in a sense for someone to defend my own freedom he was there and did more than I would’ve thought to do. Thank you Joel for all you did and all you continue to do.
