Weapons Charges in Long Beach

About Weapons Crimes in California

The Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution states that "the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed." In practice, this right has been regularly and repeatedly infringed, to the point where many people in the general public are under the impression that gun ownership is a licensed privilege, much like driving. California has some of the most restrictive firearms laws in the United States. For example, in the beginning of 2012 it became illegal to carry even an unloaded firearm in public. Concealed carry is legal, but only with a license that can be difficult to obtain, assault weapons are banned, and there are numerous additional laws concerning the possession, use and sale of firearms and other weapons.

People from all walks of life are arrested on weapons charges, from men and women engaged in hunting to gang members and even ordinary middle class residents of Long Beach. Whatever the circumstances of your own arrest, you can come to the Law Office of Peacock & Le Beau for help from a Long Beach criminal defense attorney from our team.

Common Types of Charges Involving Firearms

We can assist you with any of a wide variety of different types of weapons charges, whether you are accused of violating the terms of a restraining order by owning or possessing a firearm when prohibited from doing so, if you are charged with owning a gun despite being a convicted felon, or if you have been classified in any of the other categories of people who are banned from gun ownership (including narcotics addicts and those suffering from mental illness). Our criminal defense lawyers can help you address charges such as carrying a loaded firearm in public, brandishing a weapon, violent crimes, or any other charges that are enhanced by the use of a weapon such as armed robbery or assault with a firearm.
