Kitsap County Gun Rights Lawyers

The Second Amendment declares the right to bear arms for American citizens. However, that doesn’t stand true if you’ve been convicted of certain crimes or deemed ineligible to utilize this privilege. This can be problematic if you go hunting or target shooting, or run into situations where firearms are present. Regarding self-defense, you are automatically excluded from accessing the most powerful weapon needed to protect yourself from dangerous situations: A gun.

If your gun rights were revoked, our proven attorneys will work diligently to try to give back what’s yours. We obtain over 30 years of combined experience defending all kinds of cases, especially the most complex ones.
