Appellate Advocacy

Appeal success with strategic expertise and persuasive representation.

Appeals require different skills and strategies than trial work. Our approach to conducting appeals is based on thoughtful consideration, meticulous research, persuasive legal writing, and compelling oral advocacy.

The lawyer you choose for the appeal process is critical. Our firm has appeared at all levels of court in British Columbia with extensive experience in the BC Court of Appeal. We have acted on appeals dealing with a broad range of civil, administrative, and other matters.
