Appellate Advocacy

Miami, Florida, Appellate Lawyer Serving Southern Florida

The Three Pillars of a Strong Appeal

An appellate lawyer generally has a unique skill set compared to that of trial lawyers. This skill set includes the ability to conduct thorough legal research as the foundation of the arguments to be presented, write a persuasive brief, and present an effective oral argument before a panel of judges.

  • Research: Without properly researching a case, you cannot write a compelling brief or make a strong argument in court. We pay great attention to detail and exhaustively research every possible avenue in each case.
  • Writing: An attorney's ability to persuasively express the position of the client in writing is the hallmark of a successful appeal. A written document is the first and sometimes the only opportunity an attorney has to present the client's side of the case. Attorney Brett Powell has focused his practice on appellate advocacy throughout his career and has ample experience in drafting appellate briefs.
  • Oral argument: In crafting an effective oral argument, a lawyer must be able to field questions from the bench and present the facts of the case in a compelling manner. This is our last chance to make your case, and we will advocate as strongly on your behalf at oral argument as we do through the written brief.

Attorney Brett C. Powell will thoroughly examine the evidence and record developed at trial and will accurately assess whether you have a legitimate appeal that is worth pursuing.
