Reasons for Securing Relief
Being convicted of a crime can cause a person to turn their life around. Oftentimes, those convicted were caught in a moment of irresponsibility that caused them to make major changes in order to avoid ever having it happen again. In some cases, their conviction was unconstitutional. Your ability to have your criminal record repaired depends on a number of factors.
Some reasons that justify post-conviction relief include:
- Sentencing that exceeded the maximum allowable by law
- New evidence that exonerates a person
- Sentence expired
- There was an error in the sentencing
- Sentencing was unconstitutional
- The court was out of its jurisdiction
Steps toward Relief
Once you have decided to make an appeal for post-conviction relief, you will first file for relief in the county in which you were convicted. Your appeal will be responded to within 30 days, after which you may ask for specific changes to be made, such as a different judge to hear your case if the previous one had a bias toward you. With an experienced attorney at your side, you will have a better understanding of what to expect and how to prepare.

"Chris Jeter and his team stand by my side to help guide me in the right direction."
My name is Kelley R., owner of Wishes Dance Studio. As a small business owner in Fishers, Indiana I have found having a great attorney to be more valuable to me than great accountant. Chris Jeter and his team stand by my side to help guide me in the right direction. His knowledge of small business protected me in areas I didn't even know existed. As a result, it gave me peace of mind, takes away the worry and lets me concentrate on growing the business.- Kelley R. -
"Amazing and thorough..."
Thomas Blessing and his legal aid, Jacqueline, we're so amazing in the manner in which my grandson was advocated for in our local school system. The situation was difficult, to say the least, and Tom fought ethically and capably to protect our dignity and rights for my grandson's educational needs. We won more than the right for him to attend school as an average student, but also make-up time. I would recommend Tom and his team to help with anything educational legal issues you might have.- Kathy -

"We highly recommend this firm"
Our family has retained M&J LLP on several occasions. We were under great stress, did not know what to do next, and believed our situation was hopeless when we met with Mario M., Chris J., and staff. These people are not only brilliant, educated lawyers, but proved to personally care about what happened to our family. We feel deeply indebted to Mario M. particularly for the caring service we have been receiving. We cannot say enough good things to describe the responsible legal assistance we have received over the past year. We highly recommend this firm and will definitely use their services in the future if necessary- Lynn C.
