Appeals

What is Fair and What is Right…

Insurance companies do not budge easily. Once they decide to dig in their heels and dispute a claim, they have teams of attorneys and a virtually unlimited litigation budget. Taking on this kind of intransigence is never easy and given the complicated nature of litigation — the fact of the matter is that sometimes the insurance companies win.

Achieving fair and just results for the policyholders we represent is our bottom line measure of success. Appeals are an essential part of this process and one that we embrace whenever it becomes necessary.

Although both take place in court and have certain things in common, litigation and appeals are much like apples and oranges. Appearing before an appeals court in front of judges with very busy schedules — the eloquent, but long-winded lawyer, so effective at persuading judges and juries while waxing poetic at trial, is all but useless. This is because in the appeals process, clear, concise, and brief arguments that are on point and where possible, creative, usually win the day.

At Merlin Law Group, P.A., our lawyers represent policyholders in Florida, Mississippi, and throughout the United States in the state and federal appeals process. We have substantial experience with the appellate process, are familiar with the expectations of many appellate court judges, and understand the key differences and personal strengths required for appellate practice. Throughout our experience, we have demonstrated our ability to meet and exceed these requirements on numerous occasions.
