The inside edge to superior results.
As successful appeals begin long before trial or verdict, our appellate team often becomes actively involved at critical pre-trial stages and during trial, partnering with the trial lawyers to help posture the case for a successful resolution.
We provide real-time evaluation of the appellate issues and likelihood of success on appeal. Our objective monitoring of the trial proceedings ensures there is a comprehensive record to put our clients in the strongest position on appeal. We also assist with:
- Monitoring pre-trial proceedings
- Preparing dispositive motions, motions in limine and motions for directed verdict
- Collaborating with trial counsel to identify and preserve errors for appellate review
- Preparing jury instructions
- Preparing and arguing post-trial motions
