Gun crime charges carry some of the harshest criminal penalties in Louisiana. Anyone convicted of a serious gun crime charge could lose their right to own a gun and potentially face confinement in jail or prison. If you are facing a firearm-related charge, you can rely on a Destrehan gun crimes lawyer to provide you with the strategic support you need to avoid the consequences of a criminal conviction.

Criminal charges typically resolve through plea bargaining, dropped charges, or a trial.
