New Laws Now in Effect!

As of September 30, 2011, the much anticipated "Restaurant Carry" law took effect here in the state of Ohio. Now citizens who have underwent the proper training and have procured their concealed handgun license ("CHL") may now carry into an establishment that serves alcohol for consumption on premises as long as they too are not consuming alcohol or are intoxicated. In conjunction with this new law the State Legislature has also passed laws that took effect the same day making vehicle carry more user friendly as well as a law that now makes firearm rights restoration laws in Ohio more in tune with Federal law. As an Ohio gun rights lawyer my office is ready to advise clients on issues dealing with these changes in Ohio. Call today for more information!
