pons Violations

The penalties for a weapons charge in Missouri vary depending on the specific offense but may include:

  • Fines and court costs

  • Misdemeanor or felony convictions

  • Loss of firearm ownership rights

  • Probation or parole

  • Jail or prison time

A felony weapons conviction can have lasting consequences, including the loss of your Second Amendment rights and the inability to own or purchase firearms in the future.

Defending Against Weapons Charges

At the Law Office of Patrick E. Kennedy, we know that not every weapons charge is justified. We build strong defenses by:

  • Challenging Illegal Searches and Seizures – If law enforcement violated your Fourth Amendment rights by conducting an unlawful search, we may be able to have the charges dismissed.

  • Proving Lawful Possession – In some cases, the accused had a legal right to possess and carry the firearm but was wrongfully charged.

  • Demonstrating Self-Defense – If you used a firearm to protect yourself or others in a lawful manner, we can argue for a justifiable self-defense claim.

  • Questioning the Evidence – We examine whether police reports, witness statements, and forensic evidence support the prosecution’s case.

  • Negotiating for Reduced Charges – If dismissal isn’t possible, we work to minimize the penalties and avoid a permanent criminal record.
