Understanding Gun Offenses in Maryland and the District of Columbia.

Gun laws in Maryland and the District of Columbia are strict and often carry severe penalties. Whether you're facing charges for illegal possession, unlawful discharge, or using a firearm during the commission of another crime, the stakes are high. A conviction can result in significant prison time, hefty fines, and a permanent mark on your criminal record, affecting your future employment, housing, and more.

Illegal Sale or Transfer of a Firearm : Selling or transferring firearms without following legal protocols.


Use of a Firearm in Commission of a Crime : Enhancing penalties for crimes committed with a firearm.
