The law offices of Leonard Williamson have been dedicated to protecting the Second Amendment rights of Oregonians. As part of this commitment, we offer expert legal services for drafting gun trusts, a crucial tool for those owning or acquiring firearms regulated by the National Firearms Act (NFA).
A properly crafted gun trust allows you to legally own, possess, and transfer NFA-regulated items—such as suppressors, short-barreled rifles, and other Title II firearms—while ensuring compliance with ATF regulations. Beyond regulatory compliance, a gun trust protects these valuable assets within your estate, simplifying inheritance and shielding your loved ones from potential legal complications.
Leonard Williamson’s extensive knowledge of firearms law and estate planning ensures your trust is tailored to meet your specific needs and safeguard your firearms for generations to come. Contact us today to learn how a gun trust can protect your rights, your assets, and your legacy.

Leonard Williamson
Leonard has spent more than 30 years practicing law with much of that time focused on the legal rights of Oregon gun owners, firearms businesses, and firearms manufactures. As the founder of Oregon 2A Lawyers, he has handled over 2,000 cases across virtually every dimension of Oregon and federal firearms law - from restoring client's rights to own a firearm after a past conviction, to filing suit in Federal Court to block the implementation of Measure 114 and HB 2005 on behalf of Oregon gun owners. That combination — individual client work and landmark litigation — reflects the full scope of what Leonard does. He represents the gun owner who was denied at the counter when he tried to buy a rifle. He represents the concealed carry applicant whose sheriff wrongly denied a license. He represents the person charged with a crime after defending his family. And he represents the FFL dealer whose license is under threat from the ATF, and the ammunition manufacturer disputing an excise tax assessment with the Treasury Department.
