At Sloane and Walsh, LLP, our civil trial practice is complemented by a highly regarded appellate practice. Sloane and Walsh appellate lawyers have presented arguments on behalf of clients and amici curiae in over 140 cases before Massachusetts and Federal appellate courts. Through successful appeals, our attorneys have helped shape the legal landscape in Massachusetts and beyond in areas such as tort law, including professional and general liability, product liability, dramshop liability, trial procedure and evidence, privilege, immunity, agency, general liability insurance, homeowners’ insurance, claims-made insurance, property and fire insurance, fair insurance claims practices, and civil rights and litigation – related constitutional issues.
In addition to appeals of cases tried by our law firm, our appellate practice has expanded over the last several decades to include referrals from other trial law firms and insurance companies. Our Boston appellate lawyers also frequently obtain referrals from various industry associations and insurance companies for participation as amici curiae in appeals.
Our experience in appellate practice also uniquely positions us to accommodate pretrial requests for assistance with regard to analysis and strategy of potential appellate issues in major cases. Our appellate lawyers have assisted trial counsel from other law firms in the development and presentation of potential appellate issues in advance of, and during, trial.
Our main office is in Boston, Massachusetts, and we have branches in Lincoln, New Hampshire and Glastonbury, Connecticut for convenient access.
