Gainesville Appeals Hearing Attorneys
State and Federal Court of Appeals Lawyers
The federal and state appellate lawyers at Clayton-Johnston, P.A., provide legal representation for individuals who are either filing for an appeal of the decision of their litigation case, or who have been served notice of an appeal of a case they have won at trial. The court of appeals trial lawyers of Clayton-Johnston offer the unique and necessary skills and resources to navigate the complex legal waters of investigating the behaviors and decisions that resulted in the first trial decision. We thoroughly investigate the evidence, the legal motions presented, and the trial judge's rulings, in order to determine what strategies will lead to a successful appeal.
We offer appellate law services you can rely on for results
We do not restrict ourselves to handling appeals for cases we originally handled. We have successfully appealed litigation cases in which we were called in very late in the decision to appeal. In addition, we provide legal assistance and resources for lawyers who lack the ability to adequately represent their clients in appeals.
Contact the appeals lawyers of Clayton-Johnston to schedule a consultation about your litigation appeal matter. We are dedicated to helping you achieve the outcome you need.
