Virginia Hinrichs McMichael - Radnor Appeals Lawyer Reviews & Ratings

I started Appellate Law Group in 2013 because after 30 years of practicing law, I decided that my area of focus -- appellate practice -- needed to be handled differently from other types of litigation.. Representing a client in an appeal is time-intensive. The appellate lawyer must review the trial record and understand what happened at trial. She must be willing to do extensive legal research, because good research is often the difference between winning and losing.. An appellate lawyer must also love to write. Crafting a first-rate written argument is part skill, part art. It must be easy to read and easy to understand. Appellate judges and their law clerks are busy people with hundreds of cases to decide every year. To get their attention, an appellate brief needs to be just that -- brief -- as well as persuasive.. We believe that appeals should handled by an attorney who is completely focused on one case at a time--yours. We don't use forms or have "canned" briefs. Each and every brief is carefully researched and written to present the facts and the law in a compelling argument.
