5534 Navigating Your First Appeal

Presented October 1, 2021

This course serves as a guide for attorneys who are either new to appellate practice or who find their fundamentals could use some freshening up. It covers the progression of the average appeal, beginning with initiation, assembly of the record, and basic motion practice; the hard work of analyzing the record and writing your first appellate brief; and successfully and effectively presenting your first appellate oral argument. It closes with reflection by experienced appellate practitioners on things an attorney should be particularly wary.
