RESTORATION OF FIREARM RIGHTS

If you have felony convictions, or other restrictions on your record that prevent you from legal ownership of a firearm in Georgia, you may be eligible to apply for relief and have your rights restored.

According to Georgia’s 2024 Annual Report from the State Board of Pardons and Paroles, roughly 20-25% of total applications submitted for firearm restoration were approved. The Lewis Firm has an increased average with an approval rate of 70%.

The process for Restoration of Firearm Rights is accompanied by a request for a Pardon and is handled through the Georgia Board of Pardons and Paroles. There are certain eligibility requirements to meet such as having completed your last sentence at least five years prior to your request. The Application itself requires the accompaniment of numerous and extensive documents. Our office is happy to provide you a complete list of those requirements upon request.

Our office oversees the preparation and final submission of all applications to ensure you have the best advantage available. Our guidance and experience are aimed at making the application process efficient and easy to navigate. We are dedicated to helping our clients restore their constitutional rights.
