Appeals & Writs (State & Federal)
Chris Perri has been practicing appellate law since 2003 when he began working for the appellate division of the Travis County District Attorney’s Office. There, he authored more than 30 reply briefs for the State before beginning his career as a defense attorney.
Today, he continues to work on appeals. Much of this work is referred from other defense attorneys. Chris Perri is also experienced in handling post-conviction applications for a writ of habeas corpus. If new evidence pops up from an old case, many attorneys have trouble figuring out how to present this to the trial court in order to overturn their client’s conviction. Partnering with an experienced post-conviction attorney can save a tremendous amount of time, since we know exactly what needs to be filed and how to set the case for a hearing.
