Criminal Appeals

If you are looking for legal assistance because you or a loved one: 

​

  • has been convicted at trial, or

  • has had a post-conviction motion, such as a petition for a writ of habeas corpus, denied,

 

There are still options available to them. Just because someone got an unfavorable ruling, that doesn’t mean the case is over.  In Illinois, when a party loses in court, they have the option to appeal the result to a higher court. Then, that Court will review the arguments and facts that lead to the conviction and determine whether the ruling was correct.

​

Appeals are very different than trials, and require significant expertise and experience.  Whether you are looking for help on how to frame an issue on appeal or a new lawyer to handle your appeal, Midwest Appeals LLC may be able to assist.
