A Dedicated Post-Conviction Attorney
Petrus Law helps clients navigate the challenges of the criminal justice system after they’ve been convicted of a crime. This process is an essential part of your second-chance effort to reduce your sentence or clear your name in a wrongful conviction. Whether it’s false allegations, an unfair sentence, or new evidence has surfaced, it’s critical to have an attorney familiar with this side of the law to fight for your rights.
Proven Experience and Success
Post-conviction attorneys understand that you're facing an uphill battle, having already been sentenced. However, we also know this is a critical phase for improving your situation. We evaluate your case history, research appellate options, and pursue every legal avenue from direct appeals to 440 motions and habeas petitions. Whether you need a post-conviction lawyer for yourself or a family member, you can count on us to advocate for your rights.
Probation Lawyer
Probation violations can have serious consequences. We handle all aspects of probation defense, including violation hearings and early termination motions, which now require legal initiation due to recent policy changes. After reviewing the facts, we’ll build a strong strategy to protect you and your future.
Tier 3 Representation
The most serious cases require focused strategy and experience. We handle ticket appeals, DOCs disciplinary actions, and Article 78 proceedings, as well as parole board hearings and sentence reductions to achieve the best possible outcome.
