The appeal process can be a mine field and you need an experienced appeals lawyer who can confidently guide you through the appeals process.

Mr. Kuykendall has enjoyed overwhelming success in representing clients in appeals by seeing the process to completion personally. Typically, large law firms will have two or more lawyers at the trial level and then have another attorney or more handle the appeal. This makes the process extremely expensive and the client might feel alienated after dealing with different lawyers at every step in the proceeding .
