Lynne Torgerson Criminal Defense Attorney

Lynne Torgerson, a Minneapolis criminal defense attorney, secured a legal victory by restoring gun rights for a petitioner with prior drug felony convictions in Hennepin County. The court approved the petition after evidence of rehabilitation and stability was presented. The case highlights legal pathways for restoring Second Amendment rights, while the firm continues to provide criminal defense, appeals, and post-conviction legal services.
Minneapolis, Minnesota - April 02, 2026 - A significant legal victory has been achieved in Minnesota as Lynne Torgerson, a criminal defense attorney, successfully secured the restoration of gun rights for a petitioner previously convicted of two drug-related felonies in Hennepin County. The case involved a 3rd-degree drug felony conviction and a 5th-degree drug felony conviction, both of which had resulted in the loss of the petitioner's Second Amendment rights.

The petitioner, now 41 years old, demonstrated to the court that his past incarceration had a profound impact on his life, leading him toward meaningful personal reform. He expressed that his current lifestyle reflects stability and responsibility, and that the loss of his firearm rights remained one of the final remnants of his past legal challenges.

Upon review, the Hennepin County District Court granted the petition to restore his Second Amendment rights. The petitioner indicated his intention to participate in family hunting traditions protected under the Minnesota Constitution, as well as to exercise his right to self-defense and lawful firearm possession.
