Firearm offenses can carry substantial sentences. Federal firearm offenses can carry a sentence of up to ten years imprisonment. If you are deemed an armed career criminal based on your criminal history, you could face a mandatory minimum sentence of 15 years. The key question in these types of cases is whether you actually possessed the firearm. As your lawyer, you can depend on me to do a thorough review of the evidence to determine if the government can actually prove beyond a reasonable doubt that you possessed the firearm.
