At Bufete Barceló our work does not stop at the judgment. We believe that the period when a sentence is being served matters as much as the defence in the criminal proceedings.
We offer personal support and legal advice at this stage, which includes, among other things:
Classification: For a sentenced person's reintegration, early access to open-regime classification (tercer grado), a form of semi-liberty, is essential. We work to reach it as soon as possible, even at the initial classification.
Ordinary and extraordinary prison leave: We provide legal support to obtain every type of leave, including any appeals to the Prison Supervision Court (Juzgado de Vigilancia Penitenciaria).
Prison benefits (beneficios penitenciarios) and prisoners' rights: While a custodial sentence is being served, situations may arise that require legal support, and we make sure that all our clients' rights are respected.
Pardons and parole: At the prison stage there are other legal tools, less well known but equally useful, such as pardons and parole (libertad condicional), and we advise our clients on how to access them.
