Appellate Strategy and Support in the Trial Court

Marzano Lawyers PLLC’s appellate practice group frequently provides trial counsel with support before and during a trial.  Our appellate attorneys’ reputation has earned the trust of trial attorneys who work together with our firm to identify and implement a case strategy, which proactively reconciles the potential of prosecuting or defending an appeal in the matter.  Our attorneys have the experience and knowledge to anticipate possible appellate challenges in the lower court. With a focus on final resolution of the case, we provide appellate analysis and support that is critical to success in both the trial court and appellate court. Working closely with trial counsel, we can assist in preserving issues for review on appeal and laying the foundation for legal arguments in the higher court.

Success or failure on appeal can by shaped by the strategy employed before a pleading or motion is ever served. In the pre-trial phase of a matter, Marzano Lawyers PLLC’s appellate practice group  can assist trial counsel in a broad range of areas including litigation strategy and analysis, the preparation or defense in opposition to dispositive motions (motions for summary judgment and motions to dismiss) and motions in limine. 

If the matter reaches trial, Marzano Lawyers PLLC’s appellate attorneys assist trial counsel with preserving the record on appeal to ensure a successful defense or appeal of a judgment.  This can include appellate counsel on jury instructions and trial strategy that properly frames the facts and issue for a potential appeal.

Appellate litigation support at trial support assistance can be invaluable in ensuring that all possible bases for either arguing or defending a judgment on appeal have been identified and will be available to use in the appellate court.
