Appeals
We’re your advocate when courts take a second look.
Appeals are an important part of the judicial process, allowing for review of the decisions made by the trial court. Whether the trial court entered judgment for or against you, that judgment is subject to appeal. If you or your client has a case on appeal, you need an advocate with a deep understanding of appellate practice and procedure.
