U.S. Courts of Appeals

We have deep connections with the Ninth Circuit and other federal circuit courts

Many of our lawyers clerked for judges on the federal appellate courts, especially the Ninth Circuit, and remain involved with committees and judicial conferences. Others served for years as Staff Attorneys. We know what federal appellate judges want and how they think, and our attorneys have decades of experience practicing in the Courts of Appeals. We translate that knowledge into stronger, more effective briefs for our clients.
