Our appellate attorneys achieve outstanding results for our clients before, during, and after trial.
The lawyers in Cosgrave’s appellate practice group have briefed and argued hundreds of civil and administrative appeals before the Oregon and Washington courts of appeal and supreme courts, and the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. We don’t just handle our own firm’s appeals. Lawyers in other firms often ask us to handle their appeals.
Our practice extends beyond traditional appellate work. We also help lawyers in our firm and other firms prepare for trial, including drafting trial briefs, motions, and jury instructions.
Like a good trial lawyer, a good appellate lawyer has a particular skill set, which includes familiarity with the rules and conventions that are peculiar to the appellate courts. It also includes the ability to identify and develop the arguments that are most likely to persuade appellate judges.
Our appellate practice group has tackled complex statutory, contract, and constitutional issues in all areas of civil practice – from personal injury to business litigation, insurance coverage to professional liability, construction defects to civil rights, and more. We’ve constructed novel, cutting edge legal theories, many of which have been accepted by the appellate courts. For a list of representative appeals we’ve handled, see below.
Cosgrave’s appellate practitioners are known for their substantive and procedural knowledge as well as their analytical and writing skills. That’s why our clients and trial attorneys (from our firm and other firms) frequently ask us to assist in trial court proceedings.
Over the years, our group has drafted and argued hundreds of trial court motions and has assisted in dozens of trials.
Participating in trial to ensure that a proper trial court record is made and that specific issues are properly preserved for appeal.
