How to Get Your Gun Rights Restored in Tennessee
Getting gun rights restored in Tennessee involves a structured legal process:
- Eligibility Verification: Not all convictions allow for gun rights restoration. Our attorneys examine your record to confirm eligibility, ensuring that your case meets Tennessee’s restoration criteria.
- Gathering Supporting Documents: We assist in collecting documents, like certified judgments and character affidavits, to build a compelling petition. Character affidavits from community leaders, employers, and others who can speak to your character since your conviction are key elements we’ll gather.
- Filing and Following Through: After preparing your petition and gathering support documents, we submit everything to the circuit court. The district attorney may have the opportunity to review and comment on your petition. Once filed, we follow the progress of your case and keep you updated.
- Court Hearing: A judge will hear your case, and we’ll present evidence to show you’re deserving of your rights. This includes highlighting your history of responsible citizenship and demonstrating the positive steps you’ve taken since your conviction.
