Post conviction relief is a form of motion practice, filed in the court of original jurisdiction, that seeks to overturn a conviction. This is different than "expungement" or "sealing." It is a process whereby the very integrity of a conviction is upended, necessitating a "do over" in the law. There are numerous bases for relief. The overturning of a conviction is called "vacatur" and if done properly, makes it as if the conviction legally never happened. When this occurs, the proper way, it clears the pathway for the immigration attorney by removing inadmissibility bars and even prior final orders of removal!
Immigration Attorneys who refer clients to us are pleased to find that they remain a part of the PCR process to the extent they desire. Often times, Ms. Mc Clure will actually retain the referring attorney to keep active in the immigration aspects of the case. We guarantee that we will always refer your client back to you. We will not "steal" your client. We're criminal law experts. We leave the immigration to you.
We are also pleased to provide attorneys with Opinion Letters, obtain police reports, certificates of disposition, court records, and more. Contact us to find out how we can help you help your clients.
