Appellate Court Attorneys
When a court’s ruling is appealed, it is a whole different process than the initial trial, requiring an attorney that specializes in the appellate court process.
Thor Hearne and the attorneys of True North Law have experience appealing cases in more than a dozen US circuit courts and state supreme courts, as well as the Supreme Court of the United States.
Since most trial attorneys do not specialize in the appeals process, contact True North Law if your case is appealed.
