Federal Criminal Appeals

Federal Criminal Appeals

A jury could make a mistake. The sentencing could be unconstitutional. The verdict may have been influenced the illiteracy of a juror or fraud by a witness. But a guilty verdict on some or all charges does not mean the case is over. The criminal appeal attorneys at The Federal Appeal Center are creative, tough, and determined. We have a vast network of resources to draw on. We are experienced at all levels of the federal court system. We can assess your case and develop a winning strategy — all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court. The Appeals ProcessThe United States legal system is based on the premise of the "whole truth," yet often that truth is unequally applied. Prosecutors have an extensive staff of lawyers, investigators, police, crime labs and other experts. You need to be able to challenge their case with equal force and superior effectiveness. Yet time is short. Your appeal must be filed within a few days of your conviction. You need The Federal Appeal Center to ensure that your rights are protected and that everything possible is done to overturn your conviction. Our experienced team of attorneys will help you determine the most effective course for your appeal — then aggressively pursue that course. Options include:
  • Appeals to the Federal Circuit Courts of Appeal

  • Commutation and Clemency Proceedings

  • Petition for Review to the Supreme Court
  • Federal criminal law is complex — far more complex than state criminal law — and the consequences are much more serious. The Federal Appeal Center's vast experience in the federal system gives you the advantage of having lawyers who know federal procedure inside and out — procedures that can be critical to success in the federal criminal appeal process. From an initial petition for a writ of habeas corpus to final arguments before the Supreme Court, The Federal Appeals Center will seek to protect your rights and secure your freedom.
