FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions.
What should I do if I’ve been charged with a firearm offence?
Do not make any statements to police without legal advice. Contact Jameson Law immediately. Early intervention can help protect your rights and build a strong defence strategy.
What are the most common firearm offences in NSW?
Common charges include unauthorised possession of a firearm, possession of an unregistered firearm, carrying a prohibited weapon, unsafe storage, and discharging a firearm in a public place.
Do I need a licence to possess a firearm in NSW?
Yes. It’s an offence to possess or use a firearm in NSW without a valid firearms licence or permit. Penalties can be severe, even for first-time offenders.
Can I be charged if I didn’t know the firearm was there?
Possibly. Prosecutors must prove that you had knowledge and control over the firearm. Our team can assess the evidence and help argue for dismissal or reduced charges.
What are the penalties for firearm offences?
Penalties vary depending on the offence and circumstances. They may include fines, licence suspension, imprisonment, or criminal records. Some offences carry mandatory minimum sentences.
Will a firearm conviction affect my criminal record?
Yes. Most firearm offences result in a criminal record. This can affect employment, travel, and future licensing. Our lawyers will work to minimise or avoid conviction where possible.
Can firearm offences be defended?
Yes. Possible defences include lack of knowledge, mistaken identity, lawful excuse, or improper police procedure. Jameson Law will build a tailored defence based on your case.
