Civil Appeals

Your Trusted Appellate Advocate

In the legal practice, trial attorneys wield the power of oral advocacy, persuading through direct and cross-examinations and passionate opening and closing arguments. On the other hand, appellate attorneys master written advocacy, weaving clear and concise arguments into well-researched briefs. At Privado Law, we bring the finesse of appellate advocate to your service.

Appellate advocacy requires a deep understanding of appellate procedure, and our attorney has experience appealing cases to the 9th and 10th Circuit Courts of Appeal, as well as the Utah and California Courts of Appeals.
