Restore Your Rights After A Federal Conviction: Presidential Pardons
We all have dark chapters in our past. If your past includes a conviction for a federal offense, that past may still be haunting you, even years or decades after you’ve finished your sentence.
You may have turned your life around since then. You may be a completely different person. You shouldn’t have to continue bearing the mark of a felon for the rest of your life.
A presidential pardon may be your only avenue for finally putting the past to rest. At the law firm of Kurt Bennett - The Redemption Lawyer, we can help you put the strongest case forward for securing a presidential pardon. Kurt has decades of experience and a proven record of success in getting pardons for clients. As a firm, we focus solely on redemption law because we’re passionate about helping people get second chances.
Why Apply For A Pardon?
Federal crimes take a hefty toll on your life. Even nonviolent offenses can have a lasting impact on your life long after your sentence is served.
In the federal justice system, there is no expungement or record sealing, except in very rare circumstances. You’re stuck with the conviction. The only avenue for avoiding the lifelong impacts of a federal conviction is to seek a presidential pardon.
Who Is Eligible For Presidential Pardons?
If you’ve been convicted of a federal offense, you can apply for a pardon. Generally, you must wait five years after your release or sentencing.
The strongest pardon applications involve a clear demonstration that you’ve turned your life around or that you got caught up in something that was much bigger than you.
You stand the strongest chance of success if you were convicted of a nonviolent offense such as:
- Racketeering/RICO violations
- Drug conspiracy
- Embezzlement, fraud, money laundering and other financial crimes
- Environmental offenses
- Trespassing in national parks or on federal land or other property crimes
