Appeals & Appellate Advocacy

At Moreno Perdomo, we understand that not every case ends with a trial verdict or initial ruling. For many clients, the appellate process provides a critical opportunity to correct errors, clarify the law, and secure justice. Our attorneys handle appeals across Miami, Miami-Dade, Broward, Palm Beach, and throughout Florida, representing clients in both state and federal appellate courts.


Appellate advocacy is very different from trial work. It requires a sharp legal mind, careful review of trial records, and the ability to present persuasive written and oral arguments to appellate judges. At Moreno Perdomo, we combine deep knowledge of appellate law with decades of litigation experience, giving our clients an advantage when it matters most.


Whether you’re appealing an unfavorable ruling or defending a favorable outcome against challenge, our appellate team is prepared to guide you through this complex process. We bring clarity, precision, and strategy to every appeal.

Strategic Appellate Brief Writing


The heart of any appeal lies in the written brief. Appellate judges rely heavily on clear, well-reasoned legal arguments supported by precedent and the trial record. At Moreno Perdomo, we craft compelling briefs that highlight trial court errors, interpret legal principles, and frame issues in the most persuasive way possible.


Our attorneys conduct exhaustive reviews of trial transcripts, evidence, and legal rulings to identify errors that may warrant reversal or modification. We then present those arguments in writing that is both technically precise and strategically persuasive.


From civil litigation to complex business disputes, we ensure our clients’ positions are fully and effectively presented in the appellate process.

Effective Rhetorical Advocacy

While written briefs are central to appellate work, oral argument provides a valuable opportunity to engage directly with judges. Our attorneys excel at spoken advocacy, answering tough questions with clarity and confidence while reinforcing the strongest aspects of our clients’ cases.


We prepare extensively, anticipating the concerns of appellate judges and tailoring arguments to address them directly. This preparation allows us to defend favorable judgments or challenge unfavorable ones with authority and credibility.


By combining powerful briefs with skilled oral advocacy, Moreno Perdomo offers clients a comprehensive appellate strategy designed for maximum impact.


Correcting Trial Court Errors

Appeals often arise because trial courts made mistakes — in admitting or excluding evidence, instructing the jury, or interpreting the law. At Moreno Perdomo, we specialize in identifying these errors and presenting them effectively to appellate courts.


Common issues include misapplication of statutes, improper jury instructions, or procedural mistakes that unfairly impacted the outcome of a case. By highlighting these errors, we work to secure reversals, new trials, or modified judgments that better serve our clients’ rights and interests.


Our appellate practice covers a broad range of cases, including personal injury, business disputes, insurance claims, probate matters, and constitutional issues.


Protecting Your Rights Beyond Trial

A trial is only one stage of the legal process. For many clients, the appeal is where justice is truly secured. At Moreno Perdomo, we bring the skill, dedication, and strategic insight needed to succeed in appellate courts across Florida.
