Appellate Practice

Our clients rely on Phillips Nizer for its robust appellate practice, which features a roster of seasoned advocates who have successfully represented clients in proceedings before state and federal appellate-level courts, in disputes involving a broad spectrum of complex legal issues and underlying subject matters. No matter the status of the proceeding when a case goes up on appeal, our attorneys are skilled at framing the issues to focus the courts on the questions of law and those parts of the record  central to our clients’ cases.
  
Our attorneys approach their appellate brief-writing with creativity, intellectual rigor, and the incisive attention to detail expected by the judges in the high courts of the nation and this state.  And we expect nothing less of ourselves at oral argument: when facing a panel of appellate judges, we are consistently thoroughly prepared with the oral advocacy skills to address and respond persuasively to any questions the Court might have and to prevail on the appeal.
