APPEALS 

Our lawyers handle the appeals of trial court matters that were litigated both by BNSK and other law firms.  BNSK lawyers include not only sophisticated Big Firm trial lawyers, but also former appellate law clerks from both federal and state appellate courts such as the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit, the United States Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit and the Supreme Judicial Court of Massachusetts.  Our lawyers understand both the nuances of appellate litigation and how to craft arguments at the appellate level but are also seasoned trial lawyers and know how to effectively review a lower court trial record for appellate issues.

BNSK has a track record of success in the appellate courts, and can prepare and argue an appeal in an efficient and cost-effective manner.
