Practice Areas : Appeals & Appellate
8 appellate attorneys are listed in Phoenix. 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 Phoenix also cover Personal Injury (58), Criminal Law (46) and DUI & DWI (34). The same practice elsewhere in Arizona: Scottsdale (6). Across Arizona the directory lists 14 attorneys in this practice; Phoenix is 1st by their number among 2 cities.
