Appeals Cases

Appeals cases differ from other types of cases in that you (the “appellant”) have to prove that the court or agency that handled your criminal or civil case made a legal error that directly affected the outcome.  An appellate attorney will examine your case critically to decide if there are legitimate grounds for appeal and determine the most effective course of action.  While examining the existing record from the perspective of the appellate court, experienced appellate attorneys can find the errors in your case, which will constitute grounds for appeal.  They will then write detailed briefs explaining these grounds for appeal.
