We are proud of the reputation we have earned, but reputations do not win cases. Appeals are mainly decided based on the written briefs filed by the attorneys and occasionally by the attorneys’ handling of oral argument before the appellate court. While appellate judges decide cases based on the law and facts of each case and not on the reputation or quality of the lawyers, having an experienced and credible advocate who can clearly and persuasively advocate your position on appeal will maximize the chances of success.
