Reviewing your options after a ruling
A criminal conviction or unfavorable ruling does not always mean the legal process is over. Florida law provides appellate procedures through which certain trial court decisions may be reviewed by a higher court. Criminal appeals involve strict procedural requirements and deadlines, and the issues that may be raised on appeal depend on the circumstances of the individual case. If you believe a legal error affected your criminal case, Mitchell Criminal Law can review the record and discuss whether appellate relief may be available. Because appellate deadlines can be short, it is important to seek legal advice promptly.
