Manhattan Appellate Attorney Serving All of NYC
Not all criminal defense lawyers are prepared to pursue a criminal appeal, which requires a high level of experience and a specific skill: the ability to read the record of a prosecution and identify actionable mistakes by an attorney or judge.
At Goldberg & Allen, LLP, we have handled criminal defense efforts and trials at all levels. We enforced action within the law and ethical attorney conduct daily throughout our terms as high-level prosecutors in Kings County during the 1980s and 1990s. If you believe you may have the basis for a valid state or federal criminal appeal, we are here to evaluate your case.
Handling Appeals in State and Federal Courts
The most common regret of our appeals clients is not hiring a better-qualified criminal defense lawyer for their original case — since mistakes by defense counsel are the most common basis for a valid criminal appeal. Many have received misguided counsel or had their lawyers miss deadlines they never told the client about, or experienced a host of other problems.
Analyzing Your Case and Offering Sound Legal Guidance
One of the first questions to address is whether you may have waived your right to appeal, as is the case with most guilty pleas leading to conviction in state courts. We can readily answer this and discuss what happened in order to offer you informed guidance. Our attorneys will not offer false hope, but if you have cause for an appeal, we will be intent on proving your case.

Contact us to benefit from our high-stakes criminal defense experience across the spectrum of drug crimes, DWI and driving crimes, violent crimes and property crimes.
