Frequently Asked Questions

Can a weapons charge be fought on an illegal search?

Yes — if the gun was found during an unlawful stop or search, it may be excluded as evidence.

Will I lose my right to own guns?

Some convictions bar gun ownership. A lawyer can explain the risk for your charge.

Should I talk to the police before I have a lawyer?

You have the right to stay silent and to ask for a lawyer. Politely say you want to speak with an attorney before answering questions.

How soon should I hire a criminal defense lawyer in Kentucky?

As soon as you're charged or know you're being investigated. Early help can affect bail, evidence and whether charges are filed at all.

Can a criminal charge be dismissed?
