This work covers cases where a person believes a conviction or sentence is unsafe and seeks to challenge it after exhausting normal appeal routes. It includes seeking review by the Criminal Cases Review Commission and, if appropriate, pursuing further appeal or clemency. A solicitor helps gather new evidence, coordinates experts, liaises with the CCRC, and advises on the prospects of a successful referral or further proceedings, while protecting the client’s rights throughout a high-stakes process.
