Early Intervention Is Important
It is critical to raise many issues at the trial level or at the motion for new trial stage. This is especially true in cases involving alleged ineffective legal representation. The Law Firm of Shein and Brandenburg can review your case and provide advice in order to preserve your ability to pursue an appeal to the Georgia or U.S. Supreme Court.
Appeals Based on Alleged Ineffectiveness of Counsel
In order to prevail in these types of cases, you must show that the lawyer's performance was deficient, and that the deficiency so prejudiced the defendant that a reasonable probability exists that, but for counsel's errors, the outcome of the trial would have been different. In essence, you must prove two cases in one.
When constructing your appeal, the Law Firm of Shein and Brandenburg will thoroughly review every aspect of the trial record and subsequent appellate motions. Ms. Shein and Ms. Brandenburg will apply their legal skills to examine the legal issues that could produce a good outcome in your case.
