Appellate and Critical Motions
An appellate powerhouse renowned for its award-winning appellate litigators, Dykema offers one of the largest and most experienced appellate practices in the nation. Clients quoted in Legal 500 US note the appellate team’s “increasingly robust bench combines with the wider firm’s broad US footprint to mark it as a key contender for major appeals.”
We built our reputation on almost a century of serving clients in “bet-the-company” litigation, making new law, and gaining the respect of courts across the country. Handling appeals in the U.S. Supreme Court, every federal circuit, and most states’ appellate courts, we have an outstanding track record of obtaining reversals of adverse decisions and preserving trial court achievements.
We know our audience. In addition to experienced advocates, our team includes former appellate judges and former federal and state judicial law clerks, all of whom worked side-by-side with judges in the decision-making process and know how to present written and oral arguments that are most likely to persuade the courts.
