Federal Criminal Appeals Lawyer —
Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Delaware
A person who is convicted of a crime has a right to appeal that conviction to a higher court. However, because there are different potential grounds for appeal and because the federal system itself is so complex — it is advisable to speak to an attorney who has experience handling criminal appeals in that forum.
For nearly 30 years, attorney Mark S. Greenberg has been an effective and successful advocate for individuals seeking to appeal both state and their federal criminal convictions. To make arrangements for an initial consultation — contact us online or call our Philadelphia offices directly at 877-297-6972 or 267-439-4879.
Protecting Your Right to Appeal
The right to appeal a criminal conviction (at least once) is just one of the many safeguards built into our criminal justice system. But as important as this right is, it is also a time-sensitive right. In other words, if you or your attorney does not file a notice of your intent to appeal within 10 days of the date that judgment of sentence is entered— the right may disappear.
Attorney Mark S. Greenberg has argued numerous cases before the United States Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit, and has won reversals of convictions and reductions in sentences for many clients. His experience also includes both state post-conviction and federal habeas corpus appeals and the preparation and submission of Writs of Certiorari to the United States Supreme Court.
Examples of what “grounds for appeal” may include:
- Abuse of discretion by the trial court judge
- Prosecutorial misconduct
- Trial motions were improperly denied or granted
- Evidence admitted improperly or not admitted when it should have been
- Errors in calculating the sentencing guidelines
