Appeals

Our experienced team of criminal lawyers at Ralli provide top class legal advice on appeals across the criminal spectrum. Whether you wish to appeal a case in which we were initially instructed, or want to transfer from another firm of solicitors in any part of the UK, we provide specifically tailored and pragmatic advice on this complex area of the law.

The majority of criminal convictions can be appealed on the grounds of the conviction itself, or the sentence imposed. However, it is important to contact us quickly if transferring from another firm of solicitors to avoid being outside any time limits imposed. Clients who instruct us from the outset receive detailed help in deciding whether to appeal as a matter of course.

Appeals are not only relevant at the conclusion of a matter, but the possibility of challenging a court decision needs to be reviewed after every order made in a case. The Ralli team have vast experience in successfully challenging interim orders or bail conditions resulting in their variation or discharge.

Our expertises lie not only in commercial and corporate (white collar) criminal appeals but extend across the entire spectrum of criminal law. We regularly advise a diverse client base, ranging from those charged with serious criminal offences, to high profile figures in the business world facing quasi-criminal investigations. Our team have experience advising on appeals in Crown Courts across Manchester and the UK, as well as to the Court of Appeal and House of Lords in London.
