Perhaps of most importance to winning a case on appeal is that attorneys look at the case through the perspective of the appellate court. Regardless of their level of experience in appellate courts, attorneys engaged in handling an appeal will benefit from the advice and consultation of former appellate judges, law school professors with expertise in the particular subject matter of the appeal, and experienced appellate practitioners.

The Segal Institute provides attorneys engaged in appellate litigation with a novel and unique service: the opportunity to obtain the assistance and advice of accomplished appellate practitioners in a purely advisory/ consulting capacity. The Segal Institute does not represent clients. Rather, in the context of a neutral, objective, and confidential forum, it advises and consults with counsel to enhance the presentation of the appeal.
