Appellate work is a distinct discipline, and we practice it as one. We handle appeals and writ petitions in the California Courts of Appeal, the California Supreme Court, and the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit.
Our services include direct appeals, petitions for extraordinary writ, petitions for review and amicus briefing, anti-SLAPP appeals, and appellate consultation for trial counsel — including issue preservation, post-trial motions, and record design while the case is still in the trial court.
We are frequently brought in by other firms to handle the appeal of a case they tried, and to advise at trial on the issues most likely to matter on review.
