Partner
Criminal appeals and post-conviction petitions, from the first notice to federal habeas.
Ignacio tried cases as a public defender before he moved to appeals, so he reads a transcript the way the trial lawyer lived it. He knows which objections were made in a hurry and which silences were choices.
He takes direct appeals from convictions and sentences, state and federal habeas petitions, and resentencing petitions when the law changes. He works with families as well as clients, and explains every filing before it goes in.
