Oregon Gun Law focuses solely on Oregon-specific record relief and rights restoration. Led by attorney Shawn Kollie, we’ve guided hundreds of Oregonians through expungements, felony reductions, and firearm-rights restoration statewide. We handle every step in plain English, from your first intake to the court’s final order.
Employment & Housing: Remove old convictions from background checks.
Firearm & Hunting Rights: A set-aside often restores eligibility for firearm ownership.
Peace of Mind: Start fresh without past records following you.
Oregon law allows certain arrests, charges, or convictions to be set aside meaning they are legally treated as if they never occurred.

You still pay a small Oregon State Police background-check fee.

Usually not. Most expungements in Jackson County are handled on paper without a court appearance.
