The Light at the end of the tunnel.

Even experienced trial lawyers can find that beginning an appeal is like standing at the mouth of a dark tunnel. No matter how long you stare into the darkness, you can never really know what it's like inside until you've been there. I've successfully navigated that passage, from beginning to end, many times. I explain the entire process at the outset and then lead you through it. An appeal doesn't have to be a mystery. And it isn't, when we go through it together -- all the way to the light at the end of the tunnel.
