Legal MalpracticeAppellate Practice

Appellate practice deals with the recognition and preservation of error during lower court proceedings, and the presentation of arguments concerning that error to state or federal appellate courts. To be effective an appellate advocate, a lawyer must review the record critically, identify and brief the determinative legal issues, and then present an effective oral argument before the appellate tribunal. Unlike a jury trial, a limited amount of time is granted for an oral argument, and an attorney must make a condensed but persuasive argument to a judge or panel of judges. Lewis, Babcock & Griffin, LLP. handles appeals of all types of cases in a variety of courts, including appeals to the state and federal courts of appeal, appeals from zoning and other boards, and appeals from administrative law courts. Attorneys from Lewis, Babcock & Griffin, LLP. have argued before the South Carolina Court of Appeals, the South Carolina Supreme Court, the federal Courts of Appeal in various circuits, and in the United States Supreme Court.
