Appeals

Appellate Practice

Sanders & Parks attorneys have significant experience in briefing and arguing cases in Federal and State appellate courts. Our experience includes handling cases in which our attorneys were involved with the trial, as well as those cases in which we were brought in to handle the appeal after the conclusion of trial.

Through these experiences, our appellate advocates at Sanders & Parks have developed significant experience to evaluate the merits of a potential appeal, analyze complex legal issues, research the backgrounds and tendencies of the members of an appellate panel, and effectively communicating our client’s position to the appellate panel through written briefs and oral presentations.

Our attorneys have advocated for clients in appeals from both Arizona administrative proceedings and Arizona trial proceedings, and have successfully handled appeals before the Superior Court sitting in its appellate capacity, the Arizona Court of Appeals and the Arizona Supreme Court. Our attorneys have also successfully pursued and defended appeals in several other jurisdictions, including the following: numerous other State courts; the United States Courts of Appeals for the Ninth, Tenth, and Eleventh Circuits; and the United States Supreme Court.

Some of our attorneys have served as judges pro tem to the Arizona Court of Appeals, and several have served as law clerks for State and Federal appellate judges.
