Understand the Specific Charge
Possession, carrying, and use-of-force allegations present different questions. Rob begins with the offense alleged, the records supporting it, and any relevant permit or court history. A sound defense connects the applicable requirements to the facts that can actually be established.
Reconstruct the Full Encounter
The moments leading up to an incident can affect the meaning of what followed. Recordings, witness perspectives, physical evidence, messages, and the timing of events help develop a complete account. The investigation should address both the prosecution’s theory and the evidence supporting your defense.
Evaluate Self-Defense Carefully
A self-defense claim requires more than applying a label to the event. Rob and his team examine the circumstances, the evidence of the threat, the conduct involved, and the governing law. The work focuses on the factual and legal questions that matter to the particular case.
Keep Firearm Consequences in the Strategy
An agreement resolving a criminal charge can raise separate firearm-rights concerns. Identify your current permits, prior restrictions, and other relevant orders early. Rob and his team consider those issues when evaluating proposed resolutions so the case is assessed with its broader consequences in view.

Can I Consult You Before I Am Charged?

Can a Resolution Affect My Firearm Rights?
It may. The effect depends on the offense, disposition, and applicable state and federal rules. That issue should be evaluated before you decide whether to accept a proposed resolution.
