Appellate

Appellate law requires strong research and verbal skills and—most importantly—the ability to frame an incisive legal argument.

Best Law Firms 2024 badgeSeasoned by arguing numerous cases before the appellate courts, McManis Faulkner’s attorneys bring these skills fully to bear in matters that range from commercial disputes to family law to criminal convictions in state and federal courts. Our combined trial and appellate experience enables us to shape a litigation strategy that, from the outset, maximizes the likelihood of ultimate success. Our extensive background in appellate law often inspires clients to retain us for assistance with complex and often unsettled legal issues emanating from a variety of contexts.

We vigorously pursue appeals on behalf of clients we have represented at trial and those who newly engage us, and are particularly adept at litigating anti-SLAPP suits. Our portfolio of successful appeals speaks for itself.
