If you or a loved one has been accused of a weapon violation in Los Angeles County, time can be of the essence in resolving your case.
All weapon charges are serious, but you may have options. First and foremost, even if you have been arrested for a felony violation, your case does not have to be filed at that level in court. Early intervention with the Los Angeles District Attorney and arresting police agency may assist in steering your case in a less serious direction.
Local prosecutors are also willing to consider Pre-filing Diversion, such as APPS or Office Hearings, on a case by case basis. While every Weapon Case result depends on unique facts and circumstances, if your case is a first offense in Los Angeles County, early intervention may steer this case away from Court, and could result in your case being closed out without a criminal filing.
What are your options? Is your case eligible and suitable for a court alternative? Call Weapon Defense Attorney George Kita, now, to discuss your possible solutions, at 213-400-5355.
