Appeals

Our lawyers have argued and won cases on appeal in both state and federal courts, including the Texas and United States Supreme Courts.  Many of our appellate cases have helped to define laws or establish practices that are favorable to schools and other governmental entities.

Our success in this area is due, in part, to the fact that we are constantly seeking to identify potential appellate issues and find the most advantageous ways to address the issues in the trial court to properly position the case for a possible appeal. Our lawyers are experts at drafting clear and persuasive briefs for our clients, and we also work on amicus curiae briefs for associations with an interest in appeals that we are not directly handling. Our lawyers are also excellent advocates when cases are argued to appellate courts.
