Illinois has some of the harshest firearms punishments and penalties in the country. For example, there are specific requirements as to how a firearm can be transported, even if you are a legally allowed to possess the firearm. Additionally, Illinois law does not distinguish between the possession of a firearm and possession of ammunition. The penalties are the same. These penalties can include loss of your gun rights, high fines, and even prison time.

Because of these harsh penalties, having an aggressive gun attorney on your side is vital. If you’ve been charged with a gun crime, call (773) 791-9682.
