Southern California Misdemeanor and Felony Appeals Lawyer

Every person convicted of a misdemeanor or felony in California has the right to appeal his or her conviction to an appellate court. A criminal appeal is not the same as just retrying your case, and successful appeals require an attorney well-versed in the intricacies of the appellate process. Attorney Correen Ferrentino has handled many successful appeals. In fact, she is so skilled at appeals that her services as an appellate attorney are even sought by other lawyers. She is a highly-effective appellate advocate, and will work to get your conviction overturned.

Accomplished In both Trial and Appellate Work

Correen Ferrentino often handles writs, motions, and appeals for other criminal defense attorneys who lack her skill in appellate practice. By including an appellate lawyer as a member of your legal team from the onset of any criminal case, you can protect the court record for any potential appeal. You can also gain an advantage in plea bargain negotiations by having a skilled advocate.

For any repeat offense, such as a second or third DUI/DWI arrest, the best defense is to hire an experienced appellate lawyer to attempt to get prior convictions stricken. Successfully striking prior convictions gives you a clean slate in your current charge - this minimizes the potential for hefty fines and jail time faced by repeat offenders.

Attorney Correen Ferrentino has experience with a broad range of appellate issues, including:

• Felony and misdemeanor appeals 
• Writs of habeas corpus for unlawful detention
• Ineffective assistance of counsel claims
• Motions to challenge the lawfulness of a search and seizure
• Motions for a new trial
