Success on appeal begins in the trial court. For that reason, FMG’s appellate lawyers also regularly serve our clients in trial courts throughout the country. Timely identifying key legal issues and ensuring they are properly preserved are prerequisites for appellate success. Those issues can arise as early as the pleading stage and commonly surface in dispositive motions, motions to exclude expert witnesses, motions in limine and pretrial orders. FMG’s appellate lawyers routinely assist trial lawyers in ensuring that potential appellate issues are preserved throughout the pretrial process.

Our team also assists in protecting our clients’ interests during trial. We craft our “embedded trial counsel” role to the unique needs of each trial. In most cases, we serve as a resource to trial counsel in preserving potential appellate issues, including those that commonly arise in evidentiary rulings, motions for directed verdict, jury instructions, verdict forms, and post-trial motions.
