ABA Young Lawyers Division's 2009 Teleconference Series

Program Description
This program is ideal for young lawyers who want to celebrate Independence Day by exercising their clients’ right to appeal and learning the ins and outs of appellate practice.
This program is designed principally for practitioners seeking to improve their appellate advocacy skills, including trial lawyers who handle their own appeals and less experienced lawyers who may not yet have had the opportunity to explore the differences inherent in appellate litigation. Our panel of appellate judges who have previously served as trial judges will provide “don’t miss” perspectives on this critical aspect of the litigation process. Participants will even learn how to overcome the special challenges associated with presenting a case to judges who may lack familiarity with the trial record.
