Possession of a Firearm by a Convicted Felon

Florida restricts the rights of convicted felons. This includes the right to bear arms. If you have been convicted of a felony in Florida, it is unlawful for you to possess a gun. Additionally, if you have been convicted of a felony in another jurisdiction (outside of Florida) that carried a possible sentence of more than one year in prison, you are not eligible to possess a gun in Florida. Likewise, if you were convicted as a minor of an act that if charged as an adult would have been a felony, you are not allowed to possess a gun.

If you have questions regarding your gun ownership eligibility, don’t delay; let an experienced former prosecutor help protect your good name and reputation. Call today or contact us online for a free confidential consultation.
