Appellate Attorneys

Rabner Baumgart Ben-Asher & Nirenberg, P.C. capitalizes on the experience of our accomplished New Jersey appellate lawyers to skillfully handle intricate appeals. We handle appeals in a variety of civil cases.

Given our firm's focus on representing individuals with employment law claims, we naturally have a particular expertise at handling appeals on behalf of employees.  Whether we are representing an employee who won at trial who is defending an appeal by his or her employer, or seeking to overturn an adverse ruling that a lower court judge made against an employee, we have the knowledge and experience to handle New Jersey employment law appeals.

For example, we handle appeals involving areas of employment law including workplace harassment and discrimination due to age, gender, race, disability, pregnancy, color, sexual orientation, religion, national origin, ancestry, and religion. We also handle appeals relating to other employment law claims such as ones involving retaliation, family and medical leaves and employment contracts, as well as wage and hour disputes relating to overtime pay, minimum wage and unpaid bonuses and commissions.

Our appellate lawyers excel at appealing adverse trial court rulings and defending lower court victories on appeal to state and federal appellate courts including the New Jersey Appellate Division, the New Jersey Supreme Court, the United States Courts of Appeals for the Third Circuit and the United States Supreme Court.

Our success in the appellate arena is driven by persuasive brief-writing, a solid grasp of the complexities of appellate law, and our comprehensive understanding of appellate court rules and procedures.

For example, our attorneys have been involved in the following important appellate cases:

• Zive v. Stanley Roberts, Inc.
• Myers v. AT&T
• Cole v. Jersey City Medical Center
• NAACP v. North Hudson Regional Fire & Rescue
• Padilla v. Berkeley Educational Services of New Jersey, Inc.
• Brennan v. Norton
• Stengart v. Loving Care Agency, Inc.

For additional examples and information about many of the appeals we have handled in the past, please see our significant and precedent-setting cases page.

In addition to handling appeals from our own clients' cases, our New Jersey appellate attorneys are available to assist trial attorneys who do not have the same level of comfort or experience in appellate courts, or who simply want someone else to take a fresh look at the potential issues for appeal in their case. We can work together or independently to pursue these types of appeals.

Our firm's appellate law experience is comprehensive, and includes everything from post-trial motions and motions seeking permission to file interlocutory appeals, to drafting appellate briefs and appendices and orally arguing cases before the appellate courts. Our attorneys handle a broad range of civil appeals, and have particular proficiency in appeals related to employment law, and business and commercial disputes.
