Appellate Litigation
At LPS, we understand that appellate litigation is fundamentally different than a trial. The rules and concepts change. Arguments are made to multiple judges, who are new to the case and analyze it from a different perspective that the trial judge. The unique challenges of the appellate forum place parties without an experienced appellate specialist at a distinct disadvantage. Our appellate advocates provide the sophistication and experience that clients need to maximize their prospects for success.
