Unlawful Possession/Use of a Firearm/Gun or other Weapon
Have you been arrested and charged with unlawful possession of a weapon? Whether you have been accused of unlawfully possessing a gun, brass knuckles, switchblade, club, explosives or certain short barrel guns, unlawfully possessing a weapon is a serious criminal offense that requires the experience of an aggressive criminal lawyer that is dedicated to fighting to protect your rights and freedom.
Under Texas law, there are restrictions on your right to own and carry a weapon and where you have a right to possess certain weapons. Texas law provides that in order to carry a concealed handgun in public, you must be licensed to do so by the state of Texas. However, even if you are licensed to carry a weapon in the state of Texas, you are prohibited from carrying a concealed weapon in a county or state correctional facility, a school or a bar. Additionally, whether you are licensed to carry a weapon by the state of Texas or not, you are prohibited by Texas law from displaying a deadly weapon in public in a manner that causes fear or alarm. A violation of this Texas law could result in a charge of disorderly conduct, a Class A Misdemeanor punishable by a penalty of up to 1 year in the Tarrant County jail.
Whether you have been charged with unlawful possession of a firearm, disorderly conduct, unlawful discharge of a firearm, felon in possession of a firearm/weapon, or deadly conduct, the Hampton Law Firm will carefully investigate and analyze your weapon charge and will fight to protect your freedom and your right to continue to carry a weapon in the state of Texas.
