NJ POSSESSION OF AN ILLEGAL HANDGUN DEFENSE LAWYER

Cherry Hill NJ Illegal Handgun Attorneys: Protecting Your Gun Rights

Possessing an illegal handgun offense is common in Camden County, New Jersey, particularly in areas such as Pennsauken Township, the City of Camden, and Gloucester City. One reason for this is due to the proximity of these locations to Pennsylvania, where handgun laws are more lenient than those in New Jersey. The prevalence of criminal activities like drug distribution also contributes to illegal handguns’ increase in the area.

Getting caught with an illegal handgun can lead to severe consequences that include imprisonment in a New Jersey prison. To prevent incarceration, both innocent out-of-state drivers and individuals possessing firearms for corrupt purposes must employ skilled defense attorneys. The Law Offices of Todd Spodek have experienced attorneys who previously served as prosecutors in handgun cases. They know what it takes to secure a waiver to evade the implications of the Graves Act, which applies when carrying brands such as Glock, Smith & Wesson, Ruger, Beretta or Kahr without a valid carry permit.

Avoid Strict Concealed Carry Laws: Hire a Lawyer

New Jersey’s concealed carry laws are strict and challenging to obtain a permit due to strict requirements that include having no disabilities; good character and carrying firearms for “reasonable reasons.” “Reasonable reasons” necessitate carrying firearms for occupations that demand you do so or face a serious threat requiring defense with arms. Acquiring a permit-to-purchase gun stands out as one of the most practical options for people.

This license type allows gun transportation without needing a carry permit if following strict rules such as correctly storing unloaded guns during movement between home and shooting ranges, business premises hunting zones or secondary residencies. If necessary deviations are taken from these courses’ travel- such as securing fuel or food supplies-, accessing emergency medical attention transporting passengers or avoiding traffic delays- reasonable accommodations would suffice.

Carrying handguns without acquiring permits outside these limited circumstances or failing to secure a permit in New Jersey amounts to the offense of carrying a handgun without a permit. Unlawfully possessing handguns, including antique handguns, is also an offense under this category. This criminal act is a second-degree crime and could to lead up to ten years imprisonment and/or fines that could reach $150,000.
