Criminal Defense Appellate Attorneys
Fighting for Justice on Behalf of Clients in Indiana
Have you been convicted of a crime? If so, you should consult with our criminal defense lawyers about your case to determine if you are eligible to appeal. When you appeal a conviction, a higher court will review the details of your case to determine if you were wrongfully convicted or imposed an unfair sentence. But if you want to successfully appeal your conviction, you will need help from an experienced lawyer who can provide you with sound legal advice and guidance.
At Massillamany Jeter & Carson LLP, our dedicated team of criminal defense appellate lawyers is here to assist clients throughout Indiana with their appeal cases. We know how disheartening it can be for you and your loved ones when you are convicted for a crime, which is why will aggressively pursue your case. We know which legal strategies work in criminal appeal cases, and we will use our extensive resources and knowledge of the law to fight for you.
How Does a Criminal Defense Appeal Work?
When you appeal a conviction, the goal is to present a series of facts and present evidence that attacks the order or judgment of the court on some sort of legal ground. You can appeal both your conviction and your prison sentence. Appellate courts can decide to issue a ruling based on either briefs or oral arguments. The court can decide to uphold the decision, modify the ruling, order a new trial, and can even throw out the case.
