Strategic Appeals to Defend Your Rights
Either a victory or a loss at trial can feel like the end, but this isn’t always the case. The appellate process offers second chances to challenge legal errors that may have adversely affected the outcome of a case. Appellate courts review the legal proceedings of the trial court and may modify decisions or send cases back to the trial court for further decision with instructions. While typically new evidence or legal theories cannot be introduced, legal errors, such as misapplication of the law, improper procedure, or inadequate evidence to support a decision, may be grounds for appeal.
Our attorneys are equipped with the arduous skills required for appellate advocacy, where success hinges on a mastery of persuasive legal writings and oral argumentation. We have handled appeals and extraordinary writs across a full spectrum of litigation matters, including those from both state and federal courts. Our attorneys have successfully defended and overturned trial court decisions, securing favorable outcomes for our clients. They have been published by the California Court of Appeals and have made a significant impact in their respective fields.
The appellate process begins with filing a notice of appeal, which must be done within a strict deadline. Timing is crucial in these cases, and acting promptly is essential when preserving your right to appeal. If you believe you may have an eligible case, don’t hesitate to schedule a consultation to evaluate the merits of your appeal.
Whether you are seeking to overturn an unfavorable judgment or defend a favorable one, our appellate team is ready to guide you either as lead counsel or in collaboration with your trial counsel.
