Appeals and Trial Support

We back our proven success at trial and overturn adverse rulings and results with staunch appellate work in state and federal courts for companies, institutions, governments and individuals, both domestic and foreign.

Our substantial trial experience in complex, high-stakes civil and criminal litigation—as defense attorneys, plaintiffs, prosecutors and arbitrators—and our energetic tenacity as savvy litigators dedicated to personalized client service help us often achieve positive results for Diaz Reus' clients in appellate courts.  

Our attorneys have won significant, high-profile victories and precedent-setting decisions in appellate courts for our clients in complex commercial disputes, financial services litigation, white-collar criminal defense and more.  They are adept at managing, coordinating or assisting at all stages of appellate litigation, from identifying appeal issues with trial or arbitration counsel, to prosecuting and defending appeals motions, researching and drafting briefs, and presenting oral arguments.

Our top, Martindale-Hubbell A-V rated and highly acclaimed litigators have successfully argued cases before the Supreme Court of Florida, Florida’s District Courts of Appeal and the United States Courts of Appeals.

Trial and Arbitration Support

Additionally, we provide seasoned, arbitration and trial support in both civil and criminal cases, including electronic document preservation, litigating critical motions, researching and drafting motions at all litigation stages, and serving as issue-preservation counsel at trial and arbitration hearings.

While appellate lawyers are often thought of as lawyers of last resort—hired when a critical motion has been lost or an adverse verdict is returned by a jury—appellate counsel should be an integral part of any litigation team.  Here’s why:

Appellate lawyers possess several important skills that can aid the litigation team.  They focus on legal writing and research, and work to ensure that no potential appellate issue is waived.  Appellate counsel can also aid the litigation team in drafting and arguing critical pre- and post-trial hearing motions.  

At Diaz Reus, our appellate lawyers are part of the litigation team from day one.  Whether consulting our arbitration or trial lawyers regarding a complex point of law or assisting in the drafting of key motions, briefs and memoranda, our appellate lawyers actively strengthen our litigation teams.
