Appeals

Effective appellate advocacy often requires different skills, experience, and strategy than those required for successful trial advocacy.  In recognition of these differences, our appellate advocacy group, composed of both experienced appellate practitioners and former appellate clerks, provides a full range of appellate services, from a realistic, objective analysis of the likely success of a case on appeal to handling the matter through completion of the appellate process.

 Our appellate attorneys have experience handling appeals and extraordinary writs in a variety of matters arising from both state and federal trial courts.  The firm’s appellate advocacy group possesses an intimate familiarity with appellate procedure, persuasive writing ability, a keen understanding of the law, and the experience necessary to deal with complicated records and legal issues.
