Decades of Experience Handling Appeals in Northern Virginia and Washington, D.C.
Appellate practice is unique from litigating at the trial level. From procedural aspects to substantive arguments, a successful appeal requires knowledge and skills different from those required to achieve success at trial. Our attorneys have decades of experience handling all levels of appeals in Northern Virginia and Washington, D.C., including the Supreme Court of Virginia, the District of Columbia Court of Appeals, and federal courts of appeal across the country.
Appellate Counsel for State and Federal Appeals
In our appellate practice, we represent clients that we represented at the trial level as well as clients who engaged other firms for trial. When engaged for an appeal, we review the record to identify all possible grounds for pursuing reversal, remand, or why the decision should be affirmed. Because we have extensive trial experience, we are well-versed in the issues that have appellate implications. Those instincts provide strategic, efficient, and effective representation on appeal. Founding attorney Philip J. Harvey is licensed to practice in all appellate courts in Virginia and Washington, D.C., including:
- Supreme Court of Virginia
- District of Columbia Court of Appeals
- United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit
- United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit
- United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit
- United States Supreme Court
We handle state and federal appellate matters involving a broad range of disputes, including the following areas:
- Appeals from the Eastern District of Virginia (the “Rocket Docket”)
- Ethics and Legal Malpractice Litigation
- Commercial Litigation
- Contract Litigation
- Real Estate Litigation
