Post-Conviction Relief
We help clients understand their options after conviction and pursue focused, record-driven strategies in Georgia and federal courts.

Appeals vs Post-Conviction: Start in the Right Place
After a conviction, the right next step depends on timing and procedural posture. In many cases, a direct appeal is the first path. In others, the case has moved into post-conviction options like habeas.
Criminal Appeals
If a direct appeal is still available, deadlines may be short and the record matters. We handle both Georgia and Federal criminal appeals.
Habeas & Post-Conviction
If the appeal window has passed, or an appeal has already been decided—post-conviction relief may still be possible through Habeas Corpus.
Appellate-Focused Representation
Appellate work is different from trial work. Successful appeals and post-conviction cases require careful record review, disciplined issue selection, and persuasive writing grounded in the transcript and filings.
