Appellate Practice

The specialized practice in federal and state appeals courts requires complexity of legal thought, studied experience, and powerful writing and organizing. Whether you’re appealing from an administrative agency decision, seeking reversal of a Court’s denial, or defending a good ruling below from appellate attack, the attorneys of Murphy Orlando have been where you are. Murphy Orlando has played a lead role in the only successful cannabis regulatory appeal in New Jersey history, persuaded State and federal courts to reverse summary judgment in cases involving workplace discrimination and police authority, protected well-decided trial court rulings from appellate attack, and helped criminal defendants pursue a new trial or correct a sentencing error in federal and state criminal matters. We build effective, collaborative relationships with trial counsel, identify and develop the most effective arguments for appeal, and provide persuasive briefing and oral argument to maximize your likelihood of success.
