DEFENSE FOR CONVICTED FELONS IN POSSESSION OF FIREARMS
Under both federal and Massachusetts law, felons are not permitted to possess a firearm. If you have a felony record and are caught knowingly in possession of a firearm, you could be facing lengthy incarceration. Depending on your criminal record, you could be subject to a federal minimum mandatory sentence of 15 years.
There usually are only a couple of ways to beat these charges. One is to challenge the search that led to the discovery of the gun. The other is to argue that someone else was in control of the gun. Keith Halpern has successfully defended firearm possession cases with both of these defenses. It is absolutely critical to have a lawyer with experience and skill in pursuing motions to suppress evidence based on the illegality of the search.
