AppealsThe appellate process provides an opportunity to prove your client is right, another chance to win or a chance to preserve a victory already won. It often makes sense to supplement your trial team with outside expertise or to delegate the task altogether. In the words of one appellate court: “[T]rial attorneys who prosecute their own appeals … may have 'tunnel vision.' Having tried the case themselves, they become convinced of the merits of their cause. They may lose objectivity and would be well served by consulting and taking the advice of disinterested members of the bar, schooled in appellate practice.” Estate of Gilkison (1998) 65 Cal.App.4th 1443, 1449-50. At McDonough Holland & Allen PC, appellate advocacy is a discrete practice area with skilled, experienced practitioners.
