Just as important as winning at trial is preserving that win on appeal. Our attorneys understand the importance of anticipating an appeal while a case is in the discovery and trial stage. We have experience in prosecuting and defending appeals in state and federal courts, including Texas, Oklahoma, the 5th , 9th and 10th Circuits, and the United States Supreme Court.
Our clients’ appeals have dealt with issues that created favorable law for workers compensation carriers (coverage and subrogation), reimbursement rights for ERISA health plans, and standards for gross negligence. Many trial attorneys are not experienced in appellate work; we also handle appeals from cases tried by other firms, offering a fresh perspective on the likelihood of success in either defending or prosecuting an appeal.
