Applicants for a Concealed Carry License (CCL) in Illinois may have their application denied because of Law Enforcement Objections or other issues.

Because CCL appeals follow a complex legal procedure known as Administrative Review, it is essential to work with an attorney who is experienced in handling these types of cases.
