How To Win on Appeal

At Carver & Cantin, LLC, we have extensive experience handling criminal defense appeals. In preparing your appeal, we will thoroughly investigate every aspect of the original trial to look for possibilities for appellate success. We review trial transcripts, search for prosecutorial errors — we will look for issues that were improperly addressed or not addressed at all by the judge. If we believe that you were wrongly convicted or that there were serious legal mistakes made in your case, we will relentlessly pursue a reversal of the original decision.

Attorney Tom D. Carver has been handling criminal defense issues for over 35 years and is a recipient of the Missouri Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers' Robert Duncan Award for Appellate Excellence. Together with partner Shane Cantin, he provides people throughout Missouri with the appellate defense representation they deserve.
