D’Amato Law, When you need representation beyond trial

Appellate Advocacy

We recognize that, in some cases, a winning verdict or disappointing result may be just the beginning of the litigation.  In those cases, we serve as appellate counsel to help clients uphold that winning verdict or reverse the trial court after a loss. We understand that appellate advocacy is a skill unique from the trial court level.  Appellate advocacy includes more than just briefs and oral argument. We work closely with trial counsel whether the trial case originated from D’Amato Law or elsewhere.  We take steps, from early pre-trial litigation through trial, and at every step in between, to ensure material issues are preserved and to produce the best possible result in the reviewing courts.
