Granda y Asociados

Prison Lawyer
Madrid

When a person enters prison, both they and their family begin to face a complex and unknown world, full of regulations, procedures and decisions that directly affect their freedom and well-being.

The assistance of a lawyer specialised in prison matters is essential: in most cases it helps shorten the length of the sentence. If you can afford it, instruct them from the outset, from the moment of entering prison.

Specialised defence

Your defence inside and outside prison

Prison Law regulates everything relating to life in prison and the ways to access prison benefits, such as leave, grade changes or parole.

If you or a loved one are serving a sentence, it is essential to have a lawyer specialised in prison law to guide you from the very first moment and act in defence of your rights.

Concept

What is prison law?

It is the branch of Criminal Law that deals with regulating the enforcement of custodial sentences, as well as the legal situation of persons who are in prison.

It focuses on aspects such as:

Classification by grades (first, second or third prison grade).

The granting of ordinary and extraordinary leave permits.

Parole.

Appeals against disciplinary penalties within the prison.

Access to appeals against the decisions of the prison administration.

The defence of the fundamental rights of inmates in prison.

Why Granda

Why is it important to have a specialised lawyer?

Many people believe that, once the sentence has been handed down, there is nothing more to be done. However, the reality is very different. In many cases, a prison lawyer can:

  • Request appeals for third grade to facilitate access to an open regime, even from the very first moment, from the first classification. I personally did this with my dear client Rubén —who I don’t think is reading me—, since the experience helped him get his life back on track…
  • Start the procedures for prison leave so that the inmate can temporarily leave the institution, although sometimes it is very difficult due to various circumstances that are sometimes even hidden from their own criminal lawyer… and that is of no use at all.
  • Request parole when the legal requirements are met. We prepare them from the outset if we are instructed.
  • Defend the inmate against penalties or unjust decisions by the Prison Institutions. It is very important, since until they become time-barred no leave or grade change will be granted.

Having a specialised criminal lawyer is essential to speed up the proceedings, avoid administrative errors and ensure that all the inmate’s rights are respected during their stay in prison.

Third-grade prison appeals

Open regime

Third-grade prison classification allows the inmate to access an open regime, such as serving the sentence in a Social Integration Centre (CIS) or through the electronic monitoring system, depending on the offence for which they were convicted. We assess each situation to determine whether the requirements are met and we file the appeal with the Treatment Board or the Prison Supervision Judge, and we advise our clients by giving them ideas of what they can do in prison to improve and thus obtain it.
