Criminal Attorney for Weapon Crimes in Houston, TX

Attorney Representation in Houston, Texas since 1992

There are serious legal consequences if caught carrying a weapon in the state of Texas. You must know your rights. You need an experienced criminal defense attorney like Tad Nelson who provides strong legal representation for clients charged with the following:

  • Concealed handgun license violation
  • Unlawfully brandishing or discharging a weapon
  • Unlawfully Carrying a Weapon or UCW
  • Concealed firearms or guns at public places or at airports
  • Being a felon who is in possession of a firearm
  • Illegal sale of a weapon

 

No matter whether the weapon is an assault rifle or a switchblade, the fines and penalties can be harsh. Sentences may include prison time, fines, or the loss of the right to own a deadly weapon. The laws in Texas can be confusing and depending upon the location of the offense can change.

Many times the charges from a weapons offense occur during a traffic stop or in connection with another crime. But there are federal and state laws that prohibit unreasonable searches and seizures. Using this defense, Tad Nelson has cleared clients of gun and weapons charges.

Occasionally, there are cases that can not be challenged under the illegal search and seizure. But Tad Nelson can also build a strategic defense for your case and defend your right to own weapons and guns.
