Bloomington, Illinois - Gun Crime Lawyer

Normal IL Firearms Defense Lawyers

Conviction for a gun offense, or any other weapons offense, can lead to serious consequences. You could be fined or incarcerated. You could have a criminal record that will follow you for the rest of your life.

At Johnson Law Group, our experienced attorneys are aggressive when it comes to defending people accused of firearm and other weapons offenses. If you are under investigation for this type of crime or if you have been charged, you can count on us to fight for you.

Defense Against All Types of Gun and Weapons Offenses

Our lawyers defend against all misdemeanor and felony weapons charges, including those related to guns, knives and other illegal weapons. Charges we defend against are:

• Unlawful possession of firearms
• Unlawful use of weapons
• Unlawful sale of firearms
• Reckless discharge of firearms

Weapons charges often accompany other charges and make those charges more serious. Drug offenses, for example, are made more severe by the presence of guns. When guns are involved, the police are more likely to suspect a drug ring and investigate more aggressively. The prosecution is also likely to charge more aggressively. The gun charges alone could greatly increase the length of your sentence. But if you are involved in a drug and gun offense, you could also be facing charges for trafficking, export and import crimes, money laundering, RICO and conspiracy. Such charges could also change your state drug case into a federal drug case.

Whether you are facing a single gun charge or it is combined with other charges, our lawyers are ready to take on the challenge of defending you and protecting your rights.

Experienced Representation Makes a Difference

Our law firm features gun crime defense lawyers who are former prosecutors and former police officers. We know how the criminal justice system works from more angles than one, and that knowledge will be used to get you the best possible outcome. We will do everything possible to see that the charges against you are dropped or that you are found not guilty.

Our record of success speaks for itself. In one case, we represented a man accused of stealing while holding a knife to the victim's throat. We intervened during the police investigation and were able to convince the prosecutor not to file any charges at all.
