GUN RESTORATION RIGHTS

Lost Your Gun Rights? We Help You Win Them Back

If you have lost your right to possess firearms due to a criminal conviction or mental health commitment, you are not alone. Thousands of Virginians face the challenge of regaining their constitutional rights after a difficult chapter in their lives. At Battlefield Law Group, we help individuals across Northern Virginia navigate the legal process of restoring their gun rights so they can move forward with confidence and dignity.

Our experienced criminal defense attorneys in Manassas understand how important your Second Amendment rights are and we are committed to helping you reclaim them.

Understanding Gun Rights Loss and Restoration

In Virginia, individuals may lose their right to possess firearms if they have been:

  • Convicted of a felony

  • Convicted of certain violent misdemeanors

  • Involuntarily committed for mental health reasons

  • Subject to certain protective orders

Restoring your firearm rights is possible, but it requires following strict legal procedures under Va. Code § 18.2-308.2(C) and related statutes. You must petition the appropriate court and demonstrate that you have been rehabilitated and can safely possess firearms.

Importantly, restoration in Virginia only affects your rights under Virginia law. To fully restore your federal firearm rights, additional steps with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) may be necessary.

The Impact of Lost Gun Rights in Virginia

Each year, over 20,000 Virginians lose their right to possess firearms due to criminal convictions or mental health rulings. Many are eligible for restoration but never apply—often because the process feels confusing or out of reach.

At Battlefield Law Group, we believe in second chances and are here to help you reclaim your rights.

How We Help

Restoring gun rights in Virginia isn’t automatic—it takes strategy and strong advocacy. Our attorneys will:

  • Determine your eligibility

  • Gather evidence of rehabilitation

  • Prepare and file your petition in Circuit Court

  • Represent you at hearings

  • Ensure full compliance with Virginia and federal laws

We handle every step with professionalism and care to give you the best possible chance at restoring your rights.
