Appellate Practice
We have argued dozens of cases in the Michigan Court of Appeals and U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth, Eighth and Ninth Circuits. To effectively advocate our clients’ positions, we review the record in painstaking detail, evaluate the most likely winning arguments, draft concise, persuasive briefs, and coherently explain our position during oral argument.
