The appellate process provides an opportunity to review a lower court’s decision or defend a favorable outcome. It requires meticulous research, strong legal writing, and persuasive oral advocacy.
At MZLS, we place significant emphasis on Appellate Practice, particularly before the Puerto Rico Court of Appeals and Supreme Court. Our team includes a former Deputy Solicitor General of Puerto Rico and a former Justice of the Puerto Rico Supreme Court — professionals with firsthand experience shaping and defending Puerto Rico jurisprudence.
Whether appealing an adverse judgment or defending a trial victory, we carefully review the record, identify legal errors, and craft compelling briefs. We are also prepared to deliver persuasive oral arguments, leveraging deep insight into the Puerto Rico appellate system. We also represent clients in federal appellate courts where applicable.
