Appellate
We apply our appellate skills to aid trial teams, leverage interlocutory appeal options throughout a case, and succeed on appeal after final disposition. We handle appeals in Illinois, Indiana, and Missouri state supreme and courts of appeal. Our attorneys have also appeared before the U.S. Supreme Court and the U.S. Courts of Appeals for the Seventh, Eighth, Ninth, Tenth, and District of Columbia Circuits. This breadth of experience speaks to the trust that the firm’s clients consistently place in our firm’s appellate lawyers.
Overview
Our appellate successes stem from a number of different procedural postures, from weeks-long trials to summary dispositions. We have successfully argued interlocutory appeals involving issues of class certification, the Federal Arbitration Act, personal jurisdiction, statutes of limitations, and discovery. We are the logical choice to handle both our own appeals and those referred to us.
Our appellate practice encompasses all aspects of an appeal, from briefing to oral argument to seeking transfer or certiorari at the highest available court. Clients also regularly retain our appellate lawyers to prepare amicus briefs, requests for supervisory orders, requests for writs of prohibition or mandamus, and emergency motions.
