Federal firearm offenses are aggressively prosecuted and can carry long prison sentences. These charges are commonly brought under laws like 18 U.S. Code § 922 and § 924, and often involve allegations such as:
● Unlawful possession of a firearm by a prohibited person (e.g., a felon)
● Possession of a firearm in furtherance of a drug trafficking crime
● Interstate transportation of firearms without proper licensing
● Straw purchases or illegal transfers
● Possession of a firearm with an altered serial number
● Use of a firearm during the commission of a violent crime

Federal investigations move fast, and often silently. If you've received a federal target letter or a subpoena, it likely means that the government believes you are connected to criminal activity. They use extensive resources behind the scenes to build a case against you from day one.
How you move in these moments matters most. Do not speak to investigators or prosecutors without legal representation.
Hector Diaz is a pre-indictment strategist. His approach involves identifying pressure points in the government’s case, launching immediate investigations, and, when possible, presenting exculpatory evidence before charges are filed.
His goal? To reshape the narrative before it becomes a formal indictment.
● Early Case Intervention: Hector handles pre-indictment cases with precision, often preventing charges from being filed.
● Crisis & Media Management: Protects clients' reputations by limiting unnecessary press coverage and guiding public narratives.
● White Collar & Street Crime Experience: From CCE Kingpin notices to firearm possession, Hector is well-versed in both complex white-collar and traditional criminal charges.
● Elite Background: Clients receive top-tier defense typically only accessible through exclusive, high-cost firms.
● High-Profile Discretion: Whether you’re a CEO, athlete, or everyday citizen, your privacy is protected.
Federal firearm charges can stem from a wide range of situations. They’re very complex, which is why it’s crucial to hire an experienced federal defense attorney.
At Diaz Law, we work on these cases regularly. Some scenarios we defend include:
● You’re accused of possessing a firearm as a convicted felon.
● A weapon was found during a federal drug raid or wiretap investigation.
● A federal agent claims a weapon crossed state lines illegally.
● You were issued a subpoena or target letter involving a gun-related crime.
● You were arrested on tribal land or federal property with a firearm.
If you've received a:
● Target Letter: The government believes you are the focus of a criminal investigation.
● Subpoena: You’re being compelled to testify or provide documents, often in connection with a broader criminal case.
● Search Warrant or Notice of Investigation: Law enforcement may already be building a case.
These are serious, and often the only warning you’ll get before an indictment. Hector Diaz uses this window to reshape the government’s view of your case and introduce evidence that may halt your charges entirely.
