Practice Areas: Appellate
Appellate work is a specialized practice area that requires the ability to craft persuasive arguments grounded firmly in the law. While legal research is a common skill taught in every law school, the art of distilling that research and formulating compelling arguments demands experience. The lawyers at Brown & Gould have prosecuted and defended appeals in the appellate courts of the District of Columbia, Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia, and Florida.
