Appeals

Most people recognize that the judgment or verdict in litigation is not necessarily the final word. However, it is important to understand that there must be legal grounds for an appeal in order to proceed to that next level. The law office of Chepenik Trushin LLP has the legal knowledge, experience, and skill to effectively analyze a case and provide objective advice about the potential for pursuing a successful appeal.

Our attorneys have considerable experience representing clients in state and federal appeals in South Florida, including over 50 published appeals in both Florida state and federal courts. We are adept at the intricacies of appellate courts as well as the unique procedures that are required. To discuss an appeal with our trial lawyers, contact our office today.

Our law firm is known for our legal abilities and strong advocacy in litigation matters. Our attorneys bring that same energy, integrity, and diligence to our appellate practice as well. We are dedicated to using the power of the law to represent clients effectively in state and federal appeals involving:

• Professional disciplinary actions
• Commercial and business disputes
• Probate litigation
• Real estate disputes
• Personal injury and wrongful death claims
• Employment disputes
• Other litigation

When pursuing an appeal, it is essential to hire an attorney who has the skills and resources to commit to your case. Oftentimes, there is only one chance to appeal your case, so it is important to choose a firm that has the skill, dedication, and experience to handle your case right the first time. Chepenik Trushin LLP will thoroughly analyze your case and provide you with honest advice throughout the course of the appeal. We carefully review the original trial transcript and court record to meticulously analyze the case for any legal errors or violations that may provide opportunities for appeal. We know what to look for and how to analyze it, in order to provide you with the best advice for your particular case.

Our lawyers have the unique skill and education to provide clients with zealous representation throughout the appeal—from drafting solid appellate briefs to preparing and delivering persuasive legal arguments during oral arguments before a three judge panel. Throughout the entire process, our attorneys want to provide you with the best result. We take the time to research relevant case law and statutes to create an appellate brief that helps the judge understand the errors in your trial. Sometimes that means more than one argument, and we will entertain all avenues that are advantageous to your case. If the appeal goes to the judicial panel for oral argument, Chepenik Trushin LLP will take the time to prepare for a convincing and forceful argument. We have a track record of success and look forward to advising you on your case.

If you believe that the trial court system did not serve you justice, you may be able to get the decision overturned, reversed, or even remanded back to the trial courts for reconsideration. Chepenik Trushin LLP is here to guide you through your appeal.
