Sapone & Petrillo, LLP, has represented clients throughout New York. We understand what is on the line and will do everything we can to fight on your behalf. Our attorneys can answer your questions and discuss how this process will work.

How The Right Lawyer Can Help

Understandably, many people are overwhelmed by the thought of taking on the legal system. We are here to do that for you. The criminal appeals process can be quite complex. First, we must file a notice of appeal. We put in an appellate brief in order to help convince a judge that errors were made. We also must have an oral argument where we present our case. This is extremely important and gives us the chance to speak freely on your behalf.

During the oral argument, we must show how there was prosecutorial misconduct, mistakes by a judge or insufficient evidence. Appeals cases are not always cut and dried, and they are very difficult to argue. They require the skills of a tenacious, skilled attorney. We do what it takes because we realize the consequences of being convicted can be severe. From steep fines to years behind bars, our clients and their freedom are at risk. Put your trust in a firm that does what it takes to clearly express your case and get the best possible result.
