Appellate litigation is the process of asking a higher court to review the decision of a lower court. It involves legal arguments on whether errors were made during the trial that affected the outcome.
Unlike trial courts, appellate courts focus on questions of law rather than re-examining factual evidence. The goal is to ensure the correct application of legal principles.
The duration of an appellate case can vary depending on the complexity of the issues, court schedules, and procedural requirements. Typically, it may take several months to a year or more.
Our firm keeps clients informed at every stage to help set realistic expectations and prepare for each phase of the appeal.
Success on appeal depends on factors such as the presence of legal errors during the trial and how effectively those errors are argued before the appellate court.
While appellate courts do not re-examine facts, persuasive legal arguments can lead to reversal or modification of the lower court’s ruling.
Appellate litigation requires specialized legal knowledge and procedural expertise. Having skilled representation improves the chances of presenting compelling briefs and oral arguments.
Our team is dedicated to guiding clients through the appellate process, reducing complexity and enhancing the effectiveness of their case.
Appellate briefs are written legal documents submitted to the appellate court outlining the arguments supporting the appeal. They explain errors made during the trial and why the decision should be reversed or modified.
Preparation of thorough, well-organized briefs is critical to persuading the court and strengthening the client’s position.
Not all court decisions are eligible for appeal. Generally, only final judgments or orders affecting substantial rights can be appealed within set time frames.
Our firm evaluates each case to determine appealability and guides clients through necessary filing deadlines and requirements.
After the decision, the appellate court may affirm, reverse, or remand the case back to the trial court with instructions. We advise clients on the implications and any further steps.
If dissatisfied with the outcome, clients may have options for further review or enforcement, which we help them understand and pursue if appropriate.
