Post-Conviction, Criminal Appeals, Habeas Corpus, And Sentencing Reduction

Even where clients were convicted and sentenced and in despair about their case and future, we have succeeded in having convictions reversed or jail terms significantly reduced. Even if you think your case is “dead,” a careful review of trial transcripts may allow us to revive it.

At Epstein & Weil LLC, we carefully review every aspect of your trial for grounds for appeal or other post-conviction relief. Where appropriate, we can assemble a team of experts and investigators to document facts that support a new trial or a less restrictive sentence. We often work with siblings, parents, and the children of incarcerated family members to obtain information that can change the outcome of the case.

Our record includes numerous cases overturned in state and federal courts. For more information on post-conviction law, habeas corpus, appellate law, sentencing law, and your rights, reach out to us.

If you are a noncitizen and you are convicted or plead guilty to a crime in the U.S., you may face deportation. If you pled guilty, however, and your attorney did not inform you of the effect your plea could have on your immigration status, it may be possible to overturn your conviction under the U.S. Supreme Court case of Padilla vs. Kentucky.

If you are facing deportation after pleading guilty to a crime, we can help you understand your rights under Padilla and work to overturn your criminal conviction.
