At Carsten & Ladan, P.A., we defend clients throughout Central Florida charged with the following firearms offenses:
- Possession of an illegal weapon
- Possession of a firearm by a convicted felon

Most firearms offenses are considered felonies, and are prosecuted accordingly. Any person charged with a weapons offense will be aggressively prosecuted and may face penalties assigned by the Florida 10-20-Life law.
10-20-Life Law
In Florida's 10-20-Life law, mandatory minimum sentences are assigned to individuals who use a gun in a crime:
- Pulling a gun - Mandatory 10-year prison sentence to anyone found guilty of pulling a gun during a crime.
- Firing a gun - Mandatory 20-year prison sentence to anyone found guilty of firing a gun during a crime.
- Shooting someone - Mandatory 25-year to life prison sentence to anyone found guilty of shooting someone during a crime.
By passing the 10-20-Life law, Florida has become stricter than ever in prosecuting those accused of gun crimes. If you have been charged with any of these gun crimes, you need an experienced, aggressive defense attorney who will protect your rights and your freedom.
