Parole Hearing Appeal in State Court. Cost: $10,000

Our office realizes that financial resources for inmates and their family/friends may be limited. This is why we offer a flat rate of $10,000 for the 3-level Appeal in State Court, so there is no surprise on the attorney fees.

Our full Appeal services ($10,000) will include some or all of the following tasks, depending on what the reviewing attorney deems relevant.

a.    Preliminary Case analysis,
b.    Obtain appropriate Documents,   
c.     Review file, Investigation, Legal Research,
d.    Communicate with Client (or family), if and when deemed necessary by the attorney.
e.    Review Parole Plans presented at Parole Hearing
f.     Review Psychiatric Report(s) presented at Parole Hearing
g.    Review Board Report(s)presented at Parole Hearing
h.    Review Hearing transcript(s) 
i.     Review Institutional Behavior documentation
j.     Prepare State Court documentation necessary for the Appeal from the Board of Parole Heaerings (BPH) Decision

k.    File of the initial Petition Writ to Superior Court and subsequent Appeals in State Court

l.     Petition to Review at the California Supreme Court  to exhaust all the State remedies, if the attorney deems the review appropriate.

As an alternative plan for a smaller fee of $5,000, our office will draft the Writ for the inmate. The inmate on a Pro Per basis will submit the Writ to the fisrt level for review at the Superior Court. The attorney will not be the attorney of record or be named anywhere on the pleading (i.e. writ). The Writ (after drafting) will be turned over to the client /inmate (or his family). The Attorney's scope of employemnt will terminate after completing the drafting of the Writ Petition. It will be up to the inmate to keep track of the legal documents and to answer to the Attorney General's responses.
