Weapons Charges
Weapons Charges
Have you been charged with a weapons charge such as possessing an unlawful weapon? We have a number of articles about weapons charges and other general articles on this website. There are also firearms offences that come under the firearms charges category.
Possessing a knife or another unlawful weapon is something that many people are charged with.
Some issues in weapons cases are;
- "Whether there was a lawful excuse for possessing the weapon?"
- "How did it end up in your possession?"
