Civil and Criminal Appeals in State and Federal Appellate Courts
If you were on the wrong end of a jury verdict or unfavorable ruling, and believe that you did not get a fair shake at trial, you may have grounds to appeal the outcome.
The appellate attorneys of Stenger, Roberts, Davis & Diamond, have a solid record of favorable appeals in both appeals of civil cases and appeals of criminal convictions or sentences. Based in Wappingers Falls, we handle state and federal appeals on behalf of clients in the Hudson Valley and throughout New York state.
Time May Be Limited · Act Promptly to Preserve Your Right to Appeal
There is a brief window to file notice of appeal, as short as 10 days in federal court appeals. To give yourself the best chance of success, you need to give your attorney as much lead time as possible.
