The first 30 days after the trial court enters an unfavorable judgment to your client are critical. During this period, you will have to walk your client through several important and complex decisions that could mean the difference between success and failure on appeal. Join us for this informative program that provides a step-by-step guide for using this timeframe to give your client a head start toward winning on appeal.

Topics include: What are the important deadlines? Should you file a motion attacking the judgment and what should such a motion contain? Should you appeal instead of filing a post-judgment motion or if the motion is denied? Have the potential issues on appeal been properly preserved in the record? How can you estimate the likelihood of success on appeal? How much will an appeal cost? Is an appeal cost effective? Is it possible to stay the judgment during the appeal? What must be done to obtain a stay pending appeal? How can you ensure that the record on appeal is accurate and complete? If you will refer the case to an appellate attorney, how can you assure a seamless transition?
