RESTORE YOUR CIVIL RIGHTS!

ALLOW THE CINCOTTA LAW OFFICE TO WORK IN OBTAINING A PARDON FOR YOU NOW!

Choose an Attorney with more than 15 years of experience and a strong record of success to represent you in applying for an Oklahoma Governor's Pardon.

You can't change the past but you can make your future better by obtaining a pardon of a prior felony or misdemeanor conviction that is preventing you from possessing a firearm, voting, qualifying for a business or professional license, or qualifying for an expungement of your records.
 

Schedule a time to discuss your case with David A. Cincotta (to the right) or complete and submit an Pardon Intake Form and David A. Cincotta will review the form and be in contact with you shortly. 

A Pardon can: 
 

  • Restore your civil rights lost when convicted

  • Restore your right to possess and carry a firearm

  • Restore your right to vote

  • Make you a better candidate for employment

  • Improve your job promotion opportunities

  • Allow you to qualify for government/professional licensing

  • Make you eligible for an expungement (if you are otherwise not eligible)

  • Make you eligible for government contracts

  • Increase your chances of being admitted to educational institutions

  • Improve your reputation

Who Qualifies for a Pardon in Oklahoma?

  • Anyone who has completed the sentence imposed (including parole and/or probation)

  • Anyone who has not completed the sentence imposed but who has completed five consecutive years of parole or probation immediately prior to applying

In addition to above, the individual must:

  • have paid all fines, fees, assessments

  • have paid all restitution, if any, ordered as part of a sentence

  • NOT have any pending charges, unresolved detainers, warrants, tax liens, or child support arrearages

  • NOT have been considered for a pardon within the previous three years

How are Gun Rights Impacted by an Oklahoma Conviction:

  • Oklahoma, federal, and all other states' laws prohibit a person convicted of a felony in Oklahoma from possessing a firearm

  • Federal law prohibits individuals convicted of a felony from purchasing a firearm

  • Oklahoma and Federal law (and most, if not all states), prohibit a person convicted of a misdemeanor crime involving domestic abuse from possessing a firearm

  • Oklahoma also prohibits anyone from carrying a firearm who has a misdemeanor conviction for assault and battery (which caused serious physical injury to the victim), aggravated assault and battery, a violation relating to illegal drug use or possession under the provisions of the Uniform Controlled Dangerous Substances Act

A Pardon can restore your rights to possess a firearm.

Is a prior felony or misdemanor conviction preventing you from exercising your civil rights in Oklahoma? Has a conviction impacted your right to possess or purchase a gun or obtain a license? Do you want to clear your name for the sake of your reputation, want an expungement but ineligible at this time, or do you want to remove a previous poor decision forgiven by the State? You  need to contact us immediately to discuss options and your prospects for pardon and to discuss the process in applying for a pardon. 

KNOWLEDGEABLE OKC PARDON LAWYER DISCUSSES THE IMPORTANCE OF A PARDON

Other times, a pardon will provide more benefits than an expungement can by itself. A pardon does not erase a conviction nor does it deem a conviction to have never occurred. Instead, it is a certificate issued by the Governor of the State of Oklahoma restoring the rights one lost when convicted. Due to a conviction, some people may be barred from qualifying for certain government licensing, and  a pardon can eliminate that barrier. Additionally, a pardon is often required to restore one's right to possess and carry a firearm. Restoring one's gun rights is often a basis for seeking a pardon and ensuring that your possession of a firearm is lawful. A pardon may also be necessary in order to qualify for an expungement.
