Q: I need a good lawyer familiar with appeals and arguing motions
A: An attorney who practices criminal defense could advise best, but you await a response for two weeks and time is of the essence when it comes to appeals. This is not my area of practice, but as a general guidance, it would be best not to lose further time - instead directing efforts to looking up attorneys on your own. Time windows for appeals are universally short everywhere, and days count. By now, you have probably started to search on your own. You could supplement your searches with the tab above, "Find a Lawyer," which lists attorneys by region and practice area. You could also look into attorney referral information on local and state bar associations. Those resources are outside this Q & A forum, so any arrangements and fees would be between you and the law firms you reached out to. Good luck
