The Law office of Stephen N. Preziosi handles appeals of criminal convictions in all U.S. Circuit Courts of Appeals and in New York State Appellate Courts (including Appellate Divisions and the New York Court of Appeals). Whether your case is under the Penal Law in New York State Courts or under Federal Law in the U.S. District Courts, I have extensive experience with all types of appeals of criminal convictions in both the New York State Courts and the Federal Circuit Courts of Appeal.
I am a criminal appeals lawyer have pursued appellate cases in the Appellate Divisions, the Appellate Terms and the highest court in the State of New York, the New York Court of Appeals. This included appeals of felony convictions in New York State Courts, appeals of Federal Criminal Convictions in the various U.S. Circuit Courts of Appeals and successfully identified legal issues, designed and written briefs and conducted oral argument.
In many criminal cases in both State and Federal Courts there is a need to review certain constitutional issues and the development of new evidence found after a criminal defendant has been through the entire appellate process in his/her State Courts.
In the Federal Courts the accused, or appellant, can have the State Appellate Courts decision reviewed in the Federal Courts through the Writ of Habeas Corpus or the Writ of Errors Coram Nobis. It is important that the petitions for these types of applications be brought in a timely manner and that the correct issues are raised so that the Appellant will have the greatest possible chance for success. An experienced appellate attorney will be familiar with the process and procedures necessary to execute these important applications on behalf of the client. ?I have prepared numerous Writs of both Habeas Corpus and Coram Nobis for clients and have extensive experience in this area of the law.
