There are two reasons you might find yourself in need of an appellate lawyer. First, no matter how well a case is presented to a trial court, the trial court sometimes makes a mistake, and you need to seek a reversal of the trial court’s decision. Second, you win in the trial court, and the other side appeals. In either event, the appellate law team at Sachs Sax Caplan P.L. is prepared to represent you.

The lawyers at Sachs Sax Caplan P.L. recognize that appellate law calls upon a different set of specialized skills from those of the trial lawyer. First and foremost, a successful appeal requires excellent written briefs. Our business litigation and appellate lawyers’ proficiency in writing enables them to serve our clients when our clients are forced to participate in an appeal. They are also available to work closely with you and your trial counsel at any stage of the process to prepare for the possibility of an appeal.
