Edwardsville Criminal Court Appeals Attorney
You are not entitled to an appeal just because you are dissatisfied with the outcome of your trial. A mistake must have been made at the trial court level that was serious enough to have potentially influenced the result of the trial. In addition, your trial lawyer must have recognized the error and objected to it at the time.
We represent clients in appeals of criminal charges such as:
- Drug crimes
- DUI
- Internet crime
- Sex crimes
- Theft
- Fraud and other white-collar crimes
A criminal appeal is an opportunity to right a wrong, by overturning the conviction that never should have happened. By protecting the rights of the individual, the appellate process helps protects the legal rights of all.
