Appellate Law

The appellate lawyers at BMJRG use significant experience in appellate advocacy to get results. On appeal, the focus shifts from developing and proving fact to the legal issues that decide cases. We defend good results in the trial courts and work to secure reversals or new trials whenever necessary. Knowledge of the appellate courts and their opinions, and careful development of issues over many different types of appeals, are among the strengths of our lawyers practicing in this area. Because we bring a special focus to possible appellate challenges at the motions and trial stages of the case, our trial lawyers can lay the foundation for review on appeal in the most complex cases. We can help spot and frame issues for appeal even after judgment has been entered.
