Challenge Your Drug Conviction in Pennsylvania

In Pennsylvania’s tough legal climate, a staggering number of individuals grapple with drug-related convictions. The state’s stringent laws mean that facing conviction here often results in higher rates than elsewhere in the nation. But a judgment in the lower courts doesn’t have to be the end of your journey. Accepting a drug conviction without a fight can wreak havoc on both your career and personal standing. There’s a beacon of hope: Pennsylvania law allows for an appeal—a vital step in continuing your defense and protecting your future.

Understanding the Path to Appeal

A drug conviction appeal isn’t merely a second chance; it’s a critical strategy to challenge and potentially overturn a lower court’s judgment.

  • The Basis for Appeals:
    Appeals hinge on legal errors or constitutional violations that occurred during the original proceedings. This could range from incorrect law applications to sentencing that’s deemed too severe.
  • Introducing New Evidence:
    The appellate court is an avenue to present fresh evidence, offering a new perspective on the facts and testimonies from your initial trial.
  • Navigating Legal Obstacles:
    The appeal might also uncover instances where your prior rights to appeal were wrongly impeded.

Each case opens up different avenues for litigation, which a knowledgeable Beaver DUI attorney can outline during your consultation. It’s important to understand an appeal is contingent on valid legal grounds, not mere dissatisfaction with a trial’s outcome. Grounds like fresh evidence, inadequate representation, delays in the trial, jury bias, among others, are legitimate reasons to file an appeal.

Taking Timely Action

An appeal is time-sensitive. Immediately after a conviction, it’s essential to engage the services of a Beaver criminal attorney to review the case and determine viable appeal arguments.
