Appeals Lawyer New York, New Jersey, Philadelphia
In an ideal world, every court case would be decided correctly the first time. Unfortunately, in the real world this is not always the case: sometimes, judges and juries make the wrong decision. The American justice system allows the losing party in a civil or criminal trial to appeal and have the decision reviewed by a higher court. The Locks Law Firm, serving clients in Manhattan, Philadelphia, and New Jersey, can provide an expert appeals lawyer to represent anyone who has wrongly lost a case and wants to appeal. Our legal appellate team, led by partner Jonathan Miller, regularly wins challenging, complex cases on appeal.
Appellate Law
Appellate law – the specialty of the appeals lawyer – differs in important ways from the laws governing normal cases. Most importantly, there is no trial in an appeal. An appeals court exclusively reviews the decisions of trial courts, looking for errors of law. The appeals court will review papers, transcripts, and records from the trial as well as the arguments of the two sides in search of mistakes made by the trial judge or jury.
When do I need an appeals lawyer?
Because appellate cases are so different from original trials, an experienced appeals lawyer is absolutely essential to anyone who wants to appeal a case. When preparing an appeal, many other lawyers will either consult with an appeals lawyer or bring one in to represent their clients for them. A Locks Law Firm appeals lawyer can help you and your lawyer decide whether an appeal is appropriate and make sure you approach your appeal correctly.
