Gun Charge Attorney Spokane
Spokane, Washington Gun Charge Defense Attorney
A gun charge can be a solitary, unique charge or it can come in conjunction with another criminal charge or charges. Whatever the situation, a conviction for a weapons violation can result in a lengthy prison sentence. Many gun charges are made in federal court and carry mandatory sentences that can be very difficult, if not impossible to avoid. For these reasons, a strong and effective defense is essential.
I am Gerald R. Smith, an experienced Spokane gun charge defense attorney. For more than 17 years, I have vigorously fought to protect my clients' rights and their freedom. I am committed to defending clients accused of committing all types of firearms violations, including:
- Felon in possession — I defend individuals convicted of a felony accused of possessing a firearm or ammunition.

- Carrying a firearm during the commission of a felony — I aggressively defend individuals accused of possessing or using a firearm during and in relation to commission of a drug crime or violent crime.
