Weapons Charges
Weapons Charges Defense
In California, weapons charges are taken very seriously. Just like other criminal offenses, the circumstances surrounding the weapon offense matter. For example, someone may brandish a weapon at a bar during a fight, whereas someone else may just be keeping a weapon in their car for protection. Whether or not we agree, or whether or not you ever intended to hurt someone, there are specific law that pertain to what type of weapon a person can own and where they can be kept.
Your guilt or innocence is not mine to judge, but defending your rights is my job. I have handled many weapons charges as an attorney, including brandishing a firearm, sale or distribution of weapons, ex-felon possession of a firearm or weapon, illegal weapon possession, firearm or gun possession, discharging a firearm, using a weapon or firearm while a crime is committed and more. The use of a weapon can significantly add onto a jail sentence on top of any fines or other forms of punishment.
The Second Amendment to the Constitution gives citizens the right to keep and bear arms. I am a firm believer in this. I will make sure that your constitutional rights are not trampled on.
Why Hire Barney B. Gibbs?
For over 27 years, I have been practicing law in Orange County, California. Because of my experience in this area, I am willing to do the work that many other attorneys are not in order to try cases in court. I have tried many cases and I can tell the strength and weaknesses of my clients as well as the district attorney's case. It is important to have this knowledge at your fingertips when making one of the most important decisions of your life. I work solely with criminal cases, which means that my understanding of criminal defense is greater than those who divide their time between different areas of law.
I have worked closely with the Orange County courts for many years, which is an important factor that contributes to the success of any case. The technicalities involved in dealing with different court houses are ever changing, and it is my job to stay current with any new information that becomes available. This knowledge, as well as my experience in over 2,500 cases, provides my clients with the type of unmatched, quality defense that they deserve. My clients come from many areas of Orange County, including Garden Grove, Anaheim, Yorba Linda, Orange, Santa Ana, Huntington Beach, Irvine, Newport,Tustin, Westminister, Costa Mesa and more.
Experienced Trial Attorney
As an attorney who has personally tried many cases in court, I understand the stress that can occur with having to go to trial. Because of my experience in this area, I am willing to do the work that many other attorneys are not in order to try cases in court. I will use all tools available to me so that my clients and I can stand strong in a very emotional time. I am not afraid to work hard and fight for the rights of my clients.
Availability
Since a DUI, drug charge, or any other kind of criminal charge can occur at any hour, day or night, I find it is important that my clients are able to reach me. Many clients have difficulty reaching their attorney after the attorney has been retained. I advise each of my clients the best possible time to reach me, and I set aside time each day to be available to answer questions. I will always return calls by the end of the day. Many law firms only operate during normal business hours. As most people know, life does not only happen during these times. Before and after business hours, I am readily available to my clients, and easy to reach by phone.
I handle all of my cases personally, which means that I am there with my clients the whole way through. It is also important that my clients are able to contact me in a timely manner because there are deadlines that must be adhered to, and as an experienced and available attorney I am aware of these deadlines.
I alone handle every aspect of my client's case, which eliminates the valuable time that is wasted getting the run-around from people who do not have any knowledge about the case. In many other law firms, the client is passed around from attorney to attorney, and possibly even an intern. When you call for me, it is me you will speak with. What good is an attorney whom you are unable to reach?
My many years of practice in this area of the law have prepared me for your case. By law, you have the right to an attorney. You have the right to hire someone who understands the law and your rights. Choose correctly, call Barney B. Gibbs today.
