Gun Permit Appeal Argued and Won by the Tormey Law Firm LLC
Here is a client review from a very satisfied client who hired the Tormey Law Firm to handle a gun permit denial in NJ.
Client Hawa K – 5 stars
“Jeffrey Skiendzuil just won my firearm id appeal today. A huge weight has finally lifted and I can finally get on with my life. Those cases are pretty tough to beat, but we were in and out of court quickly, with my appeal granted. It is hard finding a decent firearm attorney in NJ that is affordable. He reached out to me a few hours after requesting an attorney on their website. He told me from day 1, “I think I’d be able to help you”, and he did! Once I retained him, he handled the rest. He listened to what I had to say and if I ever needed to reach out to him, he responded in a decent amount of time. I’m very pleased with the outcome. Although I’d never want to ever step foot in a court house again, I think it’s safe to say, I’d use this law firm again. Thank you!”
Morristown Firearms ID Card Appeals
If your gun permit application was denied, you are entitled to request a hearing in the Superior Court in the county in which you filed the application. First, you must make sure you have grounds for appeal and that you are not barred from owning or possessing weapons. For example, if you have a felony on your record or you have a temporary or final restraining order against you, you are barred from owning or possessing weapons in NJ. However, this is not permanent. You should speak to an attorney about potentially expunging your felony from your record in order to potentially restore your gun rights in NJ. Moreover, you should also speak to an attorney about filing a motion to remove the restraining order against you. If granted, this could also help in restoring your gun rights in NJ.
If you believe you have a valid gun permit appeal, you must file your appeal in writing within 30 days in the Superior Court in the county in which you reside while also serving a copy of the law enforcement agency that denied you (in most cases the Chief of police of your local department but in other cases the NJ State police).
The Court must then set a date for the appeal hearing, which must be held within 30 days of the receipt of your request. The Morris County Prosecutor’s office will provide you with a discovery packet – this is the evidence the State possesses and intends to rely upon at the gun permit appeal hearing. It can include your criminal history, mental health records, domestic violence restraining orders, the police officer’s notes, and any information from the references you provided with your gun permit application.

Your gun permit appeal hearing will be held at the Morris County Superior Court before a Judge in the Criminal division located at:
56 Washington Street
Morristown, New Jersey 07960
862-397-5700
One of the Morris County Assistant Prosecutor’s will represent the State at this gun permit appeal hearing. They will admit evidence and call witnesses (usually the police officer who considered your gun permit application) in an attempt to show the Court that there were reasonable grounds for your gun permit denial.
Once the State is finished, your lawyer will have an opportunity to cross examine their witnesses and then you can testify and admit your own evidence to show the Court that, currently, you are not disqualified from owning a firearm and the State erred in denying your gun permit application.
Our New Jersey gun lawyers have achieved great success representing clients across New Jersey at these hearings. We employ all of the knowledge, experience, and resources at our disposal to obtain superior outcomes.
