Appellate Practice – Strategic Advocacy for Complex Appeals

Experienced Legal Representation in Appeals

Appealing a court decision requires a unique set of legal skills, including deep knowledge of appellate procedures, persuasive legal writing, and strategic advocacy. La Défense Vietnam specializes in Appellate Practice, providing clients with a strong legal foundation to challenge or defend court rulings at higher levels of the judicial system. Our experienced appellate lawyers analyze trial records, identify legal errors, and craft compelling arguments to maximize the chances of success in appeals.

Understanding Appellate Practice

Appellate litigation differs significantly from trial court proceedings. Rather than presenting new evidence or witness testimony, appellate cases focus on legal errors that may have impacted the original verdict. The goal of an appeal is to persuade a higher court to overturn, modify, or uphold a lower court’s decision.

At La Défense Vietnam, we provide comprehensive appellate advocacy, ensuring that our clients receive the strongest possible legal representation throughout the appeals process.

Types of Cases We Handle in Appellate Litigation

1. Civil Appeals

We represent businesses and individuals in civil appeals, challenging or defending trial court rulings on commercial disputes, breach of contract cases, and business litigation matters.

2. Criminal Appeals

For clients facing criminal convictions, our appellate team reviews trial records to identify procedural violations, evidentiary errors, or constitutional issues that could justify a case reversal or reduced sentencing.

3. Commercial & Corporate Appeals

We handle complex commercial and corporate appeals, representing multinational corporations, investors, and business owners in disputes over contracts, shareholder rights, regulatory compliance, and mergers & acquisitions litigation.

Tax litigation often extends into appellate courts when businesses or individuals dispute tax assessments, penalties, or regulatory interpretations. We assist clients in filing appeals with tax authorities and administrative tribunals.

5. Intellectual Property (IP) Appeals

Disputes over patents, trademarks, copyrights, and trade secrets frequently require appellate review. We protect our clients’ intellectual property rights by challenging unfavorable decisions or defending them in high-stakes appeals.

6. Labor & Employment Appeals

When businesses or employees seek to overturn unfair labor rulings, wrongful termination decisions, or employment contract disputes, we provide strategic appellate representation.

Appeals in real estate and construction litigation often involve land disputes, zoning regulations, and contractual breaches. Our legal team helps clients navigate the appellate process to protect their property rights.

8. Regulatory & Government Appeals

Businesses facing government sanctions, regulatory fines, or compliance disputes can seek appellate relief. We advocate for clients before administrative agencies and appellate courts to challenge unjust regulatory actions.

Key Stages in the Appellate Process

1. Case Review & Legal Analysis

We conduct an in-depth review of the trial court proceedings, examining legal errors, procedural missteps, and judicial interpretations that could impact the outcome of the appeal.

2. Drafting & Filing Appeals

Appellate success depends on persuasive legal writing. Our lawyers draft well-researched appellate briefs that highlight critical legal arguments, case precedents, and statutory interpretations.

3. Oral Argument & Court Representation

We present compelling oral arguments before appellate judges, emphasizing errors in the trial process and advocating for our clients’ legal rights.

4. Post-Appeal Actions & Further Litigation

If necessary, we assist clients in seeking Supreme Court review, enforcing favorable appellate rulings, or preparing for retrial proceedings.
