Appellate Lawyers In Arkansas

How Will I Know If I Can Appeal My Case?

Appeals aren’t second trials — they’re about correcting legal mistakes. You may be eligible if:

• The judge misapplied the law

• Key evidence was excluded

• Your attorney failed to represent you effectively

• Your sentence was excessive

• The jury was improperly instructed

Appeals are time-sensitive. In Arkansas, you often have only 30 days from the judgment to file a notice of appeal. Don’t wait — contact Ludwig Law now.
