PROTECT YOUR RIGHTS IN A GUN CRIME CASE
You will need a dedicated Seattle gun crimes lawyer on your side if you have been arrested for a criminal offense involving a firearm. You will need aggressive representation throughout all criminal court proceedings, as prosecutors pursue these cases with determination and resolve.
Representing people charged with a gun crime requires a breadth of skills and knowledge. These cases require an understanding of the laws governing firearms, as well as those pertaining to a police officer’s arrest. For example, police often arrest people without probable cause in these cases and may even coerce a confession. Authorities also sometimes obtain evidence in gun crime cases after conducting an unlawful search and seizure. Note that the police are required to follow very specific rules and procedures at all steps of the arrest process. If they don’t, it can render evidence or statements inadmissible at trial.
It is imperative to retain a lawyer with the experience, training and knowledge necessary to investigate these cases, challenge the prosecution’s witnesses and evidence, and skillfully present your case in court. At Black & Askerov, our Seattle gun crime attorneys are well-acquainted with the rules and procedures governing gun crime cases. Our criminal attorneys have been leveraging this knowledge and experience for years now in achieving favorable results for our clients – including dismissals, acquittals, and substantial reductions of charges.
