Gun Rights Restoration & Felony Cases — Two-Stage Process

For pardons, gun rights restoration, and retroactive first offender cases, we use a two-stage approach. As a result, this keeps costs manageable and ensures you only pay for what you need.

Stage 1 — Case Evaluation & Filing: $1,500

This is where we do the heavy lifting upfront.

• In-depth review of your criminal history and eligibility
• Gathering court records, transcripts, and supporting documentation
• Identifying the right legal pathway — pardon, retroactive first offender, federal gun rights restoration, or a combination
• Building your case file and preparing your application or petition
• Filing with the State Board of Pardons and Paroles or the appropriate court

At the end of Stage 1, your case is filed and in the system. Most clients move directly to Stage 2.

Stage 2 — Case Management Through Resolution: $2,450 (typical)

Once your case is filed, we then manage it through to completion.

• Responding to Board or court inquiries and investigation requests
• Coordinating character references and supplemental documentation
• Representing you at hearings when required
• Gun rights restoration petition filed alongside your pardon application
• Managing the process until your pardon is granted and rights are restored

However, Stage 2 pricing may vary based on case complexity, number of convictions, and whether federal restoration is involved.

Who qualifies for pardons and gun rights restoration?

• Completed all criminal sentences (including probation) at least 5 years ago — even misdemeanors reset this clock
• No pending criminal cases
• Demonstrated rehabilitation and law-abiding life since completion

Why hire a lawyer for this process?

• The Board grants roughly 4 in 10 pardons statewide
• Our success rate over the last two years: 86%.
• We handle everything — document gathering, reference letters, persuasive writing, and filing — so you don’t have to

Records Restriction & Sealing — Starting at $1,500.00

Georgia’s version of expungement. We petition the court to restrict and seal your record from public access — not just the short form from the courthouse that only removes the arrest from your GCIC history.

What’s included:

• Full court petition and hearing before a judge to obtain a court order
• Protection under both Georgia and United States law
• Cleaner background checks for employment, housing, and licensing
• Typically submitted within 4 weeks

Who qualifies?

• Dismissed charges, acquittals, nolle prosequi, or dead docketed cases
• Pretrial diversion completions
• Eligible misdemeanor convictions after the waiting period

FAQs

How do I know if I qualify?

We offer a free 60-second eligibility quiz to get you started. For a detailed review of your Georgia criminal history and options, schedule a $95 attorney consultation by phone or Zoom.

How long does the process take?

Records restrictions and retroactive first offender cases typically complete in 4–6 months and can be expedited if necessary. For pardons and gun rights, we usually submit everything to the Board within 90 days of hiring, with a decision expected within 6–9 months.

Why is the gun rights and felony process split into two stages?

The two-stage approach keeps the upfront cost lower and lets us confirm your case is viable before you commit to the full process. Stage 1 covers the most labor-intensive part — the research, document gathering, and filing. Stage 2 covers management through resolution. Most clients move through both stages, but you’re never locked in.

What’s the difference between records restriction and a pardon?

Records restriction seals dismissed charges and eligible misdemeanors from public access. A pardon is an official statement of forgiveness from the State of Georgia for a conviction — it restores civil rights and is required before a felony record can be restricted. If you need gun rights restored, you need a pardon with a firearm rights petition.
