First Circuit Appellate Attorneys

Federal Appeal to the United States Court of Appeals for the First Circuit

When you are seeking appellate review to the First Circuit, it is important to consult with an experienced federal appeal attorney so that you understand your rights and so that you take the necessary steps to preserve your appeal. Appeals are complex by nature and because of this fact, many attorneys do not handle appeals. If you are looking to reverse a decision rendered by a district court, it is important that your lawyer understand both the legal basis warranting a reversal and the procedural steps required to preserve your rights to seek a reversal.  

​

Our federal appellate lawyers are knowledgeable and skilled at litigating both civil and criminal appeals. If you are seeking an appeal to the First Circuit, contact our firm to speak with an experienced appellate attorney.

About the First Circuit

The First Circuit Court of Appeals is a federal appellate court that hears civil and criminal appeals stemming from one of the following federal district courts: District of Maine, District of Massachusetts, District of New Hampshire, District of Puerto Rico, and District of Rhode Island. The First Circuit Court of Appeals has jurisdiction to hear appeals of all final decisions from those federal district courts. 

After a final decision is rendered, you can appeal the decision as of right by filing a notice of appeal. While anyone can file an appeal, winning an appeal is much more difficult. Obtaining a reversal from the Court of Appeals requires experience with the rules of procedure and knowledge of the governing law. Our attorneys have that experience.
