The Importance of Newly Discovered Evidence in Post-Conviction Cases
Newly discovered evidence refers to information or proof that was not reasonably available at the time of the original trial but, if known, could have significantly impacted the outcome. Such evidence might include recanted testimony, new witness statements, advances in forensic science, or documents that shed new light on key issues. At Dickstein Law, Attorney Jonah Dickstein conducts detailed investigations into what came to light after conviction, meticulously gathering and presenting new facts that satisfy strict legal requirements for post-conviction relief.

Proving the Significance of Newly Discovered Evidence
Successfully litigating newly discovered evidence claims requires meeting strict standards: the evidence must be genuinely new, not merely cumulative or impeaching, and likely to change the outcome upon retrial.

We understand how much is at stake and fight to ensure the courts acknowledge and act on newly uncovered facts that can make all the difference in your case.

Yes, if the court finds that the new evidence is material and would probably have changed the outcome of the original trial, it may grant a new trial or other post-conviction relief.
