Our firm has extensive experience representing individuals challenging their convictions and sentences in Georgia, including in the Georgia Court of Appeals and Supreme Court of Georgia, and in federal criminal appeals across the country. We have also helped incarcerated clients file habeas petitions if they have been unsuccessful in their direct appeal.
Criminal appeals under Georgia law are governed by state law and procedure. It is critical to retain an attorney licensed in Georgia who has experience litigating appeals in both of the state’s appellate courts, including the Supreme Court. Likewise, if your case is federal, you need an attorney who has experience with federal law and appellate procedure. Georgia law and federal law are very different when it comes to criminal appeals.
If you have questions about how to appeal a criminal case in Georgia or any federal case, contact our criminal appeal lawyers to discuss your case, and we will let you know if we can help.
