8 appellate attorneys are listed in White Plains. 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 White Plains also cover Personal Injury (22), Business Law (18) and Criminal Law (16). The same practice elsewhere in New York: Buffalo (11), Rochester (8) and Albany (8). Across New York the directory lists 35 attorneys in this practice; White Plains is 2nd by their number among 4 cities.
