Practice Area Overview

State and Federal Trial Support and Appeals

In any complex litigation, whether at trial or on appeal, you use every edge you can get. When the issues are close and the exposure is substantial at the trial level, sound strategy will account for post-trial motions and the preservation of issues for appeal. After trial, reconsideration of settlement options in light of the strength of your case can often achieve a favorable result. Once the appeal is filed by either party, you can't waste time and the panel's patience on marginal issues and convoluted reasoning. Only the sharpest appellate presentation will get the job done.

Contact New York civil appeals attorney Annette G. Hasapidis for help both at trial and on appeal. Since 1991, she has handled more than 170 appeals, and has worked with trial counsel on a wide range of motions and difficult strategic decisions. She can help make the most of a case at any stage of the litigation process.

In state and federal appeals, Annette Hasapidis provides a candid and accurate assessment of the strength of your case based not only on the law and the trial record, but also on her keen understanding of the applicable rules and standards of review. She will identify the strongest arguments, help assess the risks and expenses involved, and deliver a brief that expresses your position in the clearest and most persuasive terms possible.  Equally important, she will identify the weaknesses, if any, in your position and develop a credible strategy to minimize any such shortcoming.

At the trial level, many lawyers appreciate her ability to keep broad strategic objectives in view while concentrating on the details of a given motion, witness, or procedural consideration. Many appeals are won at the trial level through careful preservation of issues, management of the record, and avoiding the temptation to cut corners when invited to do so by opposing counsel or the court.
