At every level of the federal and state appellate court systems, The Carlyle Appellate Law Firm has successfully represented clients in complex appellate litigation across all areas of the law. The Firm has earned an AV rating by Martindale-Hubbell. Members of our team have held positions such as appellate law clerk, appellate judge, judicial assistant and appellate clerk's staff member. These positions provide us with a unique window into how appellate judges actually decide cases as well as how the appellate court system is administered.
Our appellate lawyers vigorously represent clients in appeals to all five of Florida's district courts of appeal, the Supreme Court of Florida, the United States Court of Appeals for the 11th Circuit Court, and the Supreme Court of the United States. We pride ourselves in keeping our clients closely informed of developments throughout the process.
We also provide strategic counseling and advice to trial lawyers and their clients on issues before an appeal is eminent. For instance, we are frequently retained to assist in briefing complex legal issues at the trial level to ensure that arguments are properly preserved for appeal. Other aspects of litigation support include assisting trial counsel with pre-trial motions, jury instructions, objections during trial and post-trial motions. We are also frequently involved in evaluating the prospects of an appeal and assisting in appellate mediation.
Although our practice is truly nationwide, the Firm maintains its office in a relaxed, but professional setting in "Florida's Friendliest Hometown" - the Villages. This environment provides our lawyers and staff with the ability to balance career, family, and recreation. We are in the process of constructing a new office building which will provide a pleasant working environment for our lawyers, paralegals, and staff, and will give us more room to enable us to better serve our clients and trial lawyers.
