Justin Lange

hired Justin Lange from Nave Law Firm in 2025 and paid $3,000 upfront to amend my Certificate of Relief of Disabilities to restore my Second Amendment rights. Before retaining him, I made my situation absolutely clear: I no longer reside in New York and live in Pennsylvania. I specifically asked w...hether he was confident and capable of handling this type of case. He assured me he would not take the case unless he was 100% certain he could successfully handle it. After nearly an entire year of delays, I was finally told that he could not proceed because I am no longer a New York resident. I was then informed that the process required involvement from the New York Department of Probation, which would not conduct an investigation due to my out-of-state residency. This is a fundamental issue that should have been identified immediately — not after a year. What made this even more concerning was the suggestion that I try to involve the Pennsylvania Department of Probation, which has no jurisdiction over a New York case. That recommendation was not only impractical but demonstrated a serious lack of proper case evaluation from the start. I relied on his representation and statements that his firm had successfully handled similar out-of-state cases. That proved to be inaccurate in my situation. As a result, I lost a full year of time, $3,000, and endured unnecessary frustration. Strong Warning: Based on my experience, I would urge anyone considering this attorney for similar matters — especially out-of-state Certificate of Relief cases — to proceed with extreme caution and demand clear, written confirmation of feasibility before paying any fees. This was a significant disappointment and a costly mistake.
