8 appellate attorneys are listed in Birmingham. They challenge and defend decisions already made — writing briefs, arguing legal error and standards of review, and handling post-conviction petitions.
An appeal is not a second trial. No new evidence is taken, and the court asks whether the law was applied correctly rather than how it would have decided the facts.
The deadline to file a notice of appeal is short and jurisdictional. Call before it runs. Ask each attorney how much of their practice is appellate work, since it is a distinct skill from trial advocacy.
Lawyers listed in Birmingham also cover Personal Injury (80), Products Liability (44) and Business Law (31). Birmingham is the only city in Alabama where the directory lists attorneys in this practice above the listing threshold.
