Joliet Weapons Possession Attorney
Gun & Weapon Charges Attorney Serving Will County
The laws in Illinois that affect gun ownership and use can be confusing, even to law abiding citizens. As you may know, a Firearm Owner's Identification Card (FOID) is required for anyone who wishes to purchase and own guns. As a gun owner, you will be required to have your FOID card in your possession whenever you carry a firearm or even when transporting an unloaded gun in your car. You will also be required to follow certain procedures when carrying guns, such as only transporting firearms when they are unloaded and in a locked case. Failure to abide by Illinois' strict gun laws can result in misdemeanor charges related to FOID cards or felony charges for offenses such as unlawful possession of a firearm.
Unfortunately, even those who are careful to abide by gun laws and regulations can sometimes get tripped up. If you are facing charges of illegal possession of a firearm, failure to carry a FOID card, or violating the laws regarding concealed weapons, you should secure legal representation from an experienced weapons charges lawyer.
