Appellate

We consult with clients at trial on the best way to make the record for the appeal that may follow. We give the case the best possible footing because of our experience with final appealable order law and persuasiveness for discretionary appeals. Our firm has argued cases in all of Ohio’s twelve appellate districts as well as the Ohio Supreme Court.

Personal Injury and Professional Malpractice

An injury can turn your life upside down. Grappling with financial stress during your recovery only compounds the turmoil. If another person’s negligence caused your injury, even if that person is a doctor or other professional, we will work diligently to get the compensation you need to meet your needs and chart a path forward.
