Fighting for Your Rights

Our team has several years of experience at all levels of the appellate process. We can provide the advice and representation you need to work toward a favorable outcome in your appeal.

Our appeals services include:

• Evaluating your case to determine the likelihood of success on appeal
• Making a thorough review of the record in the trial court for errors in pretrial motions, decisions, evidentiary rulings, the sufficiency of the evidence to support any important findings of fact, and mistakes in interpreting statutes, regulations or procedural rules
• Careful definition of the issues to be raised and presented on appeal
• Thorough research and development of legal arguments
• Well-crafted and persuasive appellate briefs

Oral argument before a panel of appellate judges seldom makes a significant difference in the outcome of a civil or criminal appeal. Review of the evidence, painstaking legal research, and clear written presentation of your strongest arguments by an experienced attorney are the keys to preserving a favorable trial court ruling or reversing an adverse decision. Our knowledgeable Chesterfield appeals attorneys are skilled at making oral arguments on your behalf, as well as researching and presenting your best case to the Michigan or Federal appeals court.
