Firearm offenses in Colorado are taken seriously by prosecutors and judges alike. Even responsible gun owners can find themselves facing charges if they misinterpret or overlook complex state and federal laws. A conviction can bring jail or prison time, steep fines, and lasting restrictions on your ability to own or carry firearms in the future. At DeChant Law, we understand how high the stakes are, and we are ready to fight for your freedom.
Gun crimes come in many forms, including:
Even misdemeanor firearm charges can bring jail time and leave a permanent mark on your record. Felony convictions can result in years behind bars and long-term consequences for employment, housing, and civil rights.
Attorney Reid DeChant carefully reviews each case to determine whether law enforcement followed proper procedures during the investigation. Many cases involve issues with unlawful searches, questionable witness accounts, or weak evidence of possession. In some cases, prosecutors may also overcharge or pursue enhancements that can be challenged.
Our goal is to minimize penalties, seek reduced charges where possible, and aggressively fight for dismissals when the evidence does not support the allegations.

I can’t say enough good things about Reid. From the very beginning he was the first and only person to truly care and fight for what I was going through. We went through a lot of ups and downs together and in the end my case was dismissed. He truly fought for me to the end and did everything he could to ensure a smooth process. He kept me calm and even brought in John to help. They both are extremely kind souls and are good at what they do. Highly recommend.
I’m beyond thankful for the service that DeChant law provided. Each step throughout my legal battle was dealt with great communication and in-depth information to help me better understand what I was facing. The end result was something that I had hoped for going in, but with each day and encounter/conversation that we had made it more of a possibility. And DeChant law represented me and I know I wouldn’t have gotten the results that I did without them. I felt important from beginning to end, that I mattered. That this was as important to them as it was for me. Thank you so much!!!
