Attorneys serve both in the civil courts and the criminal courts. If the person in prison has the evidence that he is not guilty as charged then it should be brought to the attention of a lawyer that deals in criminal suits. If he feels that his defense was not correctly conducted then he should appeal with a lawyer proficient in such matters. But why were these things not discussed at the trial?
Civil, unless it is criminal defense. What did you do?
it would depend on the crime in question and how serious it was. If he was sent to jail, sounds criminal to me and therefore it would be a criminal lawyer. Civil lawyers aren’t just for people who’s civil rights were violated. It means “not criminal” basically. But both may or may not apply here.
