APPELLATE LITIGATION
Quality legal writing and client efficiency are the end result of a specialized appellate division. O’Brien & Ryan, LLP has centralized its legal writing and appellate efforts into a single department. This centralization ensures that attorneys with years of research, legal writing, and oral advocacy experience produce the highest quality appellate product. This concentration of resources results in more efficient research for the client by utilizing specialists in research and writing and by reducing duplication of effort. Our appellate attorneys work closely with trial counsel to prepare and respond to post-trial motions, prepare appellate briefs, and present oral argument before State and Federal appellate courts.
