The Illinois Appellate Practice Resource for solo and small firm lawyers
Even experienced trial lawyers can find that beginning an appeal is like standing at the mouth of a dark tunnel. No matter how long you stare into the darkness, you can never really know what it's like inside until you've been there. I've successfully navigated that passage many times. I clearly explain each step in the process to the client and keep referring counsel fully informed, creating a seamless referral experience. An appeal doesn't have to be a mystery. And it isn't, when we go through it together -- all the way to the light at the end of the tunnel.
