Understanding the Appeals Process
The process of appeals begins by contacting an appeals lawyer in Miami-Dade County immediately following a conviction. This lawyer can review your case and determine what is the best course of action for filing an appeal. Once this has been determined, the conviction or sentence may be contested, and a new trial can begin.
Appeals can be filed for a number of convictions, including, but not limited to:
- Assault and battery cases
- Burglary
- Domestic violence
- Drug crimes
- Felonies
- Misdemeanors
- Juvenile crimes
- Murder and manslaughter
- Sex crimes
- Theft crimes
- Identity theft
- Violent crimes or firearm crimes
- White collar crimes
A skilled appeals lawyer will look for mistakes in the previous case and uses these as leverage in an appeal case. The appellate system allows for individuals to have a second chance, and with the right legal help, a person can have their past convictions altered.
