If you're charged with a drug or property crime while a gun is in your possession, you face not only a mandatory prison sentence if convicted — your sentence will also be longer than it would be otherwise. Gun and weapons charges are serious matters that require a vigorous and focused defense. Seymour Amster's experience with investigations and trials of serious felony cases throughout Southern California can give you an important advantage towards resolving the case on positive terms.

Our law firm knows how to cast doubt on evidence that indicates you had possession of the weapon, or the reasons why a gun or other weapon might have been found during a search, or on the illegal nature of a particular weapon. Our skill with these evidentiary issues can help you both in plea negotiations and at trial in a wide variety of situations:

• Assault cases
• State or federal felon with a firearm charges
• Crimes related to antique or collectible weapons
• Juvenile weapons charges
• Gun charges related to gang affiliation or activity
• Guns recovered in searches related to drug crimes
• Guns recovered in traffic and DUI stops

As a certified Criminal Law Specialist under standards established by the State Bar of California's Board of Legal Specialization, Seymour Amster knows how to protect your interests and make the most of the presumption of innocence that the government must overcome.

We offer free consultations from our offices in Van Nuys, Lancaster, West Covina, downtown L.A. or any of our other offices throughout Southern California.
