8 appellate attorneys are listed in San Antonio. 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 San Antonio also cover Personal Injury (63), Criminal Law (42) and Family Law (42). The same practice elsewhere in Texas: Dallas (6), Abilene (5) and Waco (5). Across Texas the directory lists 24 attorneys in this practice; San Antonio is 1st by their number among 4 cities.
