Legal Question in Civil Rights Law in Virginia

Hi there--They just want you to show, with documents, that you're entitled to the restoration. Take a look at this page from the Va State Police website: http://www.vsp.state.va.us/Firearms_Restoration.shtm. If you can't make head or tail of it, you need a lawyer--that's what lawyers are supposed to do, make sense of this stuff for people and help them thread their way through it.

So, we have to figure out if you're legally entitled to the restoration or not. That means applying these legal requirements to your particular facts. (On another level, just as one human being to another, I'd advise you to consider carefully whether you have reasons for wanting the right restored, and look at what those reasons are--beyond just trying to make whole what the state took away, which is totally natural.)

I'm a longtime ACLU and civil rights lawyer and Va. bar member. I'd be happy to consult with you on what the law requires to restore your gun rights and whether you qualify. Our normal consult fee is $300, but we've been known to make exceptions. Let me know by e-mail. Good luck to you no matter what you decide.--Steve Pershing.
