Washington Gun Rights Restoration lawyer

Lost Your Right To Own A Firearm?


Gun rights can be lost after certain convictions, including some felonies and domestic violence misdemeanors. Washington law allows many people to petition for restoration once specific conditions are met. Nigel Malden Law reviews eligibility, prepares filings, and appears in court so eligible residents from Tacoma, Seattle, Olympia, and Pierce County can move forward legally.

Who Is Eligible To Restore Rights

Eligibility often requires a crime-free period after completing all conditions, no pending charges, and an offense that is not disqualifying under Washington law. We verify county records, confirm timelines, and advise on proof you will need. If your goal also includes clearing an old conviction, we explain where expungement and vacating fits in and when both paths make sense.

The Restoration Process

Our team pulls certified records, drafts a petition, and files in the correct court. We coordinate with the prosecutor, schedule a hearing, and present evidence that you meet statutory requirements. After an order is granted, we provide guidance on how agencies update records and how to confirm status before any purchase or possession.

Why Choose Nigel Malden Law

Clients choose our Tacoma firm for our experienced guidance and steady communication throughout the process. We understand local court practices from Pierce County to King and Thurston and prepare petitions that address common questions judges ask at hearings.
