Lawyer Rankings
United States > Dispute resolution > Appellate: courts of appeals / Appellate: supreme courts (states and federal)
Greenberg Traurig LLP brings to bear a robust record in appellate work, which has seen members of its team argue before the US Supreme Court as well as all 13 federal circuit courts. Drawing on platforms across the country, with particularly well-staffed groups in Miami, Austin and New York, the practice handles appeals concerning class actions, energy, election law, labor, IP and administrative law, among others. Among its recent wins, Austin-based Dale Wainwright successfully represented CR Bard before the Fifth Circuit in a failure-to-warn case involving medical devices. Wainwright co-chairs the practice alongside Miami-based Elliot Scherker and New York-based Carmen Beauchamp Ciparick. Dominic Draye, who splits his time between Washington DC and Phoenix, is also noted.
