Second Chances – Unlawful Possession of a Firearm by Felon

RESULTS: Second Chances – Unlawful Possession of a Firearm by Felon

A non-violent client in a rural county was arrested for Unlawful Possession of a Firearm by Felon because of a past-drug-related offense.

He was facing prison time because of his history, which did NOT include any violence or firearms charges.

The State automatically offered prison because of the client’s history UNTIL our criminal defense attorney reviewed the case facts, presented the client’s explanation to the State, and advocated for his position.

At Blizzard and Zimmerman Attorneys we not only investigate the facts and listen to the client’s story, but we also consider the spirit of the law—meaning, what the lawmakers were thinking when they created the law.

Here, we gave our client a voice in the process and successfully negotiated a non-convicted probation in line with what the law is meant to accomplish.
