Appellate Practice
Besides their formidable trial advocacy skills, the litigation group members have excelled in appellate practice. All of our members worked as judicial clerks in either the Supreme Court or the Court of Appeals of Puerto Rico. Furthermore, our attorneys have filed countless appellate briefs in a wide array of cases. This expertise enhances our work as trial attorneys, for oftentimes, parties have to analytically predict the higher courts’ conduct in order to effectively make their cases at the trial level.
