Florida Appellate Lawyers

When we take your case to court, there is always the possibility that the case might continue beyond trial. Even if we prevail at trial, your adversary might appeal the decision to a higher court. We continue to fight for our clients on appeal. Our goals are to completely vindicate their rights and preserve their hard-won victories.

At trial, our every move is calculated to preserve your rights in case of appeal. We have three goals – communication with the jury; communication with the judge; preparing a proper record for review by the appellate court.

At the Aventura, Florida, law firm of Stok & Associates, P.A., we have extensive appellate experience in both the state and federal courts of appeals. Our Florida appellate lawyers have successfully argued appellate cases that have changed both Florida law and federal law.

It should be noted that merely losing a case does not automatically provide grounds for an appeal. There must be circumstances or events that warrant such an appeal. An experienced appellate attorney will recognize these chinks in the armor of the case and seek to revive the matter and overturn the negative decision by the court. If we are not satisfied with the outcome at trial, we are prepared to continue to pursue the case through the appellate courts.

Typical causes for appeal include:

• Defending the appeal of a favorable trial result
• Mistakes related to points of law
• Procedural errors by the court

We have handled appeals across a wide range of topics, including:

• Business and commercial matters
• Family law matters, including visitation rights
• Property rights

Appellate litigation is different from standard trial work. Knowing how to properly structure and present the necessary legal arguments for an appeal is a skill that not all attorneys possess. We take both a practical and scholarly approach to your case that is respected among both state and federal appellate tribunals.

At Stok & Associates, P.A., a Florida appellate lawyer can assess your case and determine if there are sufficient grounds for an appeal. If so, we will move forward and begin building arguments aimed at overturning the courts decision and obtaining a favorable result.
