Yesterday, the federal Committee on House Administration held a Full Committee Hearing entitled “2022 Midterms Look Back Series: Government Voter Suppression in Luzerne County, Pennsylvania.” As reflected in the prior holding of Luzerne County Common Pleas Judge Lesa Gelb and in the testimony yesterday, Luzerne County, Pennsylvania “[v]oters, through no fault of their own, were disenfranchised and denied the fundamental right to vote.” While Judge Gelb directed, as a result of the early morning ballot shortages, that the polling locations remain open an extra two hours, or until 10 PM, on November 8, 2022, the number of voters who arrived at the polling locations, only to be turned away, and never to return, is unknown. In this day in age, the failure to have sufficient ballots in a polling location is unfathomable. The fact that our Founding Fathers, in a transportation infastructure-less and computer-less society, were able to ensure that there were sufficient ballots for voters to vote, but some two hundred plus years later, we are unable to provide the same guarantee is incomprehensible. This is not a Republican, Democrat, Independent, Green…etc issue, as it affected individuals of every political party that sought to vote in Luzerne County on November 8, 2022. It is imperative that we ensure that individuals are never again disenfranchised and denied their fundamental right to vote anywhere in the United States.

With our 2nd Amendment rights being attacked at both the Federal and State level, and the ATF (Burea of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives) trying to close down FFLs (Federal Firearms Licensees) for minor infractions while making FFLs the scapegoat when the ATF's records are inaccurate, I want to take this opportunity to introduce myself. I am one of only a handful of attorneys across the US that practices in the niche area of law known as firearms law. I decided to concentrate my legal practice on firearms law not only because I am a shooter and firearms enthusiast, but also to ensure that our inalienable Right to Keep and Bear Arms is never encroached upon.
I handle cases at the Federal and State level for both FFLs and individuals. At the federal and state levels for individuals, I actively defend the 2nd Amendment of the US Constitution and Section 21 of the PA Constitution, as well as, help individuals with:
- License to Carry Firearms Denials;
- Challenges to Erroneous PICS Denials;
- Relief from Firearms Disabilities;
- Estate Planning Advice;
- Gun/NFA Trusts; and
- 42 USC 1983 Actions for Deprivation of Civil Rights
At both the state and federal levels, I represent FFLs and SOTs throughout Pennsylvania and the US regarding:
- ATF Compliance Inspections;
- Warning Letters and Hearings;
- FFL Revocations;
- Corporate Structure Advice
- Indoor/Outdoor Range Implementation; and
- Forfeiture Proceedings
In following my love for firearms and firearms law, I have taught several Continuing Legal Education (CLE) seminars on Firearms in Estates and Trusts and Firearms Law 101 for several Bar Associations, including Berks, Cumberland, and Dauphin Counties. I also planned and taught several Firearms in Estates CLE classes for the Pennsylvania Bar Institute (PBI).
While at Widener Law School, I was a member of the Widener Law Journal. I wrote an article on the Inaccuracy of the National Firearms Registration and Transfer Record (NFRTR). I also had an article published on Fee Disputes in Workers Compensation cases in the Widener Law Journal, Volume 18, No. 2.
You can often find me posting on several internet forums, including Subguns, Uzitalk, AR15, and PAFOA. I also hold PA Firearms Law classes for local ranges to inform the public on the firearm laws of the Commonwealth.
Following in my father's footsteps, I am also a Board member for the Pottstown Police Athletic League (PAL).
