If you have been wrongfully convicted of a crime or if a judge or jury has rendered a verdict against you because of an incorrect interpretation of the law, you may need the services of a skilled and experienced appeals lawyer.

Our founding attorney at The Viorst Law Offices, P.C., has extensive experience preparing appellate briefs and presenting compelling legal arguments in Colorado state and federal appeals. Contact our Denver criminal and civil appeals lawyer today.
How Our Resourceful And Recognized Appellate Lawyer Can Help You
Unlike jury trials, where facts are considered and determined, appellate hearings focus entirely on interpretations of law. A successful appellate lawyer must have a solid understanding of the law, excellent legal research and writing skills, and the ability to use oral argument to persuade a panel of judges to accept a particular interpretation of the law.
Anthony Viorst has more than 30 years of experience in criminal defense law and has built a reputation for results in appeals cases. Every year since 2007, he has been named to the prestigious Super Lawyers list in the area of appeals. Mr. Viorst has also written extensively on appellate law. One article, titled “Appellate Standards Of Review,” was featured in “Trial Talk,” which is published by the Colorado Trial Lawyers Association.
Mr. Viorst knows the state and federal criminal appeals legal systems. If your sentence violates the sentencing guidelines, or you were convicted because of a faulty arrest procedure, incorrect investigation or evidence tampering, the negligence of your original lawyer, or jury error, you deserve justice. Attorney Anthony Viorst will work hard to get you the justice you deserve. He will listen to you carefully and act on what he learns. He will bring every fact that may have been previously overlooked to the attention of the judges. His investigations are thorough, and his findings could be the truth that sets you free.
We Also Appeal Commercial And Civil Disputes
Our firm can also appeal an unfavorable outcome in commercial and civil disputes, including rulings in domestic cases such as divorce and child custody issues. Mr. Viorst understands that a civil appeal is won by the single argument that convinces the judge your view of the law is correct, according to principles of public policy and the best interests of the parties involved, as well as the applicable law.
