What is Post-Conviction Relief?

Post-conviction relief is the process through which a person asks a judge to vacate their criminal conviction in either a state or federal court. There are multiple reasons a judge may render a criminal conviction null and void. Some examples include: a violation of the individual’s rights, an unfair sentence, or an issue with the representation provided by a former attorney. If any of these factors are found, a judge could order an individual released from prison, impose a new sentence, or grant a new trial.

Many post-conviction claims are filed by individuals on “pro se” (“on behalf of oneself”) bases. They typically file them after their direct criminal appeals were lost and their convictions were affirmed.

At Hampton Law Office, we stand ready to discuss your options for what to do after a criminal conviction. We are here to provide you with the following legal services:

If you feel that your trial was unfair, the jury was coerced, or that your former attorney was not fully capable of providing you with sound legal judgment and representation, consider working with an Oklahoma City post-conviction attorney.

How Can an Attorney Help?

An experienced attorney can help you understand your rights and whether they’ve been violated. Post-conviction provides several grounds for seeking relief. The Post-Conviction Act allows for attacking criminal convictions and illegal revocations. In state post-convictions, there is no time bar for seeking relief after a conviction has become final. Having an experienced attorney in the area of post-conviction is very important to understand what claims are viable for consideration by the court. Post-conviction establishes an act for challenging criminal state court convictions.
