What is a civil appeal?

A civil appeal is a request to a higher court to review the decision of a lower court. So, if the trial court decision impacts you in a way that you cannot live with, you can file an appeal to try to obtain a decision you can live with! See the different types of Civil Appeals below.

  • Contract Disputes

  • Employment Litigation

  • Personal Injury Litigation

  • Real Property Disputes

  • General Civil

  • Federal Appeals

Senior Civil Appellate Attorney

Liz Parker

Associate Civil Appellate Attorney

Jennifer Alberts

  • Our law firm had the pleasure of working with the Speaker Law Firm on an application for leave to appeal involving several complex and cutting-edge legal issues. We hired Liisa and her team, specifically Elizabeth Parker, to consult with our law firm on our application and they proved to be invaluable on both the procedural and substantive processes required for this kind of appeal. The Speaker Law Firm worked well within the strict timelines and provided top-quality legal research and arguments to enhance our application. I recommend Speaker Law Firm, without hesitation, to any person or attorney pursuing an appeal in the State of Michigan.

    Kelly McClintock, attorney

  • This is a fantastic firm for appeals! I have known Elizabeth Parker professionally for years, and she is a tremendous resource for appeals. She is the first person I reach out to when I need guidance on an appellate matter. She's a great person to have on your team.

    Ruth Goldner, attorney

  • Jennifer's work on behalf of a mutual client of ours was terrific. Her research was in-depth, and her writing was direct, efficient and - most importantly - persuasive. Stellar work by a stellar attorney.

    John Turck, attorney

  • Elizabeth Parker has represented me over the past 8 years. She is always incredibly thorough and supportive. I would happily recommended her to anyone needing counsel.

    Pam Melton, former client

  • I have co-counseled litigation matters with Liz on several different matters over the years. Her legal analysis, work-product, and advocacy skills are excellent. I highly recommend her.
