Well, you want a weapons lawyer who really understands the code, who follows how often it changes, and ideally, we believe at our firm that you want weapons lawyers who also own and carry weapons themselves because that really gets them invested in knowing the law backwards and forwards. So Walker & Taylor is actually in a unique spot within Texas weapons law as well because we participate in the legislative session. So not only do you have lawyers who are digging in, breathing weapons law every single day, you’ve got lawyers who actually were instrumental in drafting and testimony for new weapons law in the state of Texas. It’s not just the guys who know the law but the guys who help make it.
Houston, TX criminal defense attorney Emily William Taylor talks about what one should look for in hiring a weapons attorney. She states that clients seeking a weapons lawyer want someone who truly understands the code, keeps up with how frequently it changes, and ideally, is personally invested in firearms themselves. At Walker & Taylor, the attorneys meet all of these criteria—they not only follow weapons law closely, they also own and carry firearms, which deepens their understanding of the law from both a practical and legal perspective.
Walker & Taylor occupies a unique position in Texas weapons law because the firm actively participates in the legislative process. Its attorneys don’t just study and apply the law every day—they have also played key roles in drafting and providing testimony for new firearms legislation in the state. The firm’s lawyers are not only experts in the law but are also directly involved in shaping it.
