Appellate Litigation
Regardless of the outcome of your civil case at trial, there is a likelihood that you or the other side may choose to appeal the result to a higher court. In certain circumstances an appeal may even happen in the middle of a civil case to clarify certain legal issues before a case goes to trial. Though appeals are frequent, they must address specific errors made by the lower court, or novel and evolving interpretations of the law. Our appellate attorneys can help protect your rights in the appeals process by thoroughly reviewing the record, briefing all the relevant issues to the appellate court and arguing your appeal.
