Weapon Charge Attorneys in North Idaho
The state of Idaho takes weapon offenses seriously – and so should you. If you are caught up in a situation involving weapons, you need a legal defender to stand between you and the consequences.
At Amendola Doty & Brumley, PLLC, we have seen how quickly a single moment can escalate into a serious legal battle. Our legal team help individuals in Coeur d’Alene, Sandpoint, Moscow, Post Falls and across North Idaho defend against all types of weapons charges. With 80-plus years of combined courtroom experience, our team has helped people just like you fight back against the system and come out stronger.
Types Of Weapon Charges
Idaho law defines many different kinds of weapon-related offenses. These charges are not one-size-fits-all, and neither is your defense. We handle:
- Unlawful possession of firearms (particularly for those with prior felony convictions)
- Discharging a firearm within city limits
- Carrying a concealed weapon while under the influence
- Aggravated assault with a deadly weapon
- Weapons enhancement charges that increase penalties for other crimes
Our lawyers know the stakes, and we do not back down.
Understanding Gun Rights Laws
Idaho strongly supports the Second Amendment, but that does not mean there are no limits:
- Constitutional carry is legal for adults over 18, but restrictions still apply to certain locations and individuals
- Federal and state laws both impact who can legally carry or own a gun in Idaho
- Restoration of gun rights after a felony is possible but not automatic
Judges are not impressed with unfounded allegations, but they also do not care that you did not mean harm or that you have never been in trouble before. Once you are arrested, a serious defense from our lawyers can lead to a positive outcome.
