Appellate Practice

Sullivan Cohen handles appeals cases of federal and state litigation, whether on its cases or those that were handles in the trial court by another firm.

The attorneys in Sullivan Cohen’s Commercial Litigation practice area represent individuals, partnerships, corporations, limited liability companies, and other types of entities in business related disputes. We handle trials in state and federal courts, appeals, arbitrations, mediations and administrative proceedings.

Given the commitment of time and financial resources required, Sullivan Cohen believes that litigation or arbitration should be avoided except where absolutely necessary.  Mediation and settlement is usually preferable.  But when it cannot be avoided – for whatever reason – clients need  a team of experienced, creative and efficient lawyers who can not only litigate or arbitrate, but do it successfully.  Sullivan Cohen’s litigators and trial lawyers have decades of experience doing just that, whether the dispute involves commercial contracts, intellectual property, trust and estates, securities, energy or real property.  And once the trial is completed, Sullivan Cohen can help bring the appellate process to a successful conclusion.    

Sullivan Cohen knows how important yet disruptive legal disputes can be for people, relationships, and businesses. We are skilled at helping parties assess whether mediation is right for them, when it’s time to mediate, and what process will best suit their particular dispute. Whether you are ready to schedule a mediation or just want to explore your options, We are ready to talk.
