What Rights Can Be Restored After a Felony in Arizona?

Arizona law gives eligible individuals the chance to regain important civil rights, such as:

  • The right to vote
  • Serving on a jury
  • Running for public office
  • The legal ability to own or possess a firearm

Some rights may be automatically restored after a first-time, non-violent offense. But for others—especially gun rights or cases involving repeat convictions—you’ll need to file a petition and go through the court process.

Restoring Gun Rights in Arizona: What You Should Know

Regaining your firearm rights after a felony isn’t automatic. Here’s how it works under Arizona law:

  • For non-serious felonies, you can apply for firearm rights restoration two years after your sentence is fully discharged (including probation/parole)
  • For certain more serious offenses, period increases to ten years
  • If your offense is considered dangerous, such as involving weapons or domestic violence under ARS 13-704, you are not eligible for restoration of gun rights under state law.

Additionally, you should know: 

  • Civil rights restoration does not automatically include firearm rights; a separate petition is required
  • A set-aside doesn’t restore gun rights
  • Federal law may still block gun ownership even if Arizona approves it

Our lawyers will look over your case according to both state and federal law and help you understand your full legal situation.

FAQs About Civil and Gun Rights Restoration in Sahuarita

How long will the process take?
It varies. Some petitions are resolved in a few months, while others take longer depending on the court and whether a hearing is needed.
Can I apply if I’ve had multiple felonies?
Yes, but the process may be more complex and take longer. We will review your entire record and let you know what is possible.
Does a set-aside automatically restore my rights?

No. A set-aside can help clear up your record but doesn’t restore civil or gun rights by itself.

Is it necessary to hire a lawyer?

You can file on your own, but having a lawyer increases your likelihood of success. We know how the process works, when it will happen, and what the court needs to see.

Will this restore my rights under federal law too?
Not always. Even if Arizona restores your rights, federal law may still impose restrictions.
