Pro se appellants and appellees at every stage of the appellate process.
If you believe the trial court made an error of law or fact that affected the outcome, an appeal is your remedy. We prepare properly formatted appellate briefs based on the arguments and record you identify.
Post-judgment motions — motions for reconsideration, motions for new trial — must be filed timely and properly to preserve your right to appeal. We prepare these critical filings.
If a judgment is about to be enforced against you and you intend to appeal, an emergency motion to stay may be available. We prepare the motion and supporting memorandum.
If the opposing party has appealed a judgment in your favor, you need a properly prepared answer brief. We prepare the appellee's brief based on the arguments you provide.
