A ruling at the trial court level is not always final. The Judiciary’s appellate process provides for the review of trial court rulings, under certain circumstances, to correct a mistake, clarify the law, or establish new common law principles. Appellate court decisions establish the legal framework for our society and Deeley King Pang & Van Etten, LLP welcomes the opportunity to advance your interests in Hawaii’s highest courts.

Our lawyers have represented clients before the Intermediate Court of Appeals, the Supreme Court of Hawaii, and the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals. Our collaborative approach helps us identify and present our clients’ strongest legal arguments. Our sense of “the big picture” grounds our appellate practice in the real-world consequences of our work.

If you lost a case at the trial court level, but want to know if there may be grounds for an appeal or if you won and your opponent is attempting to overturn the trial court’s decision, call (808) 533-1751 or e-mail us to discuss how Deeley King Pang & Van Etten, LLP can assist you with your Hawaii appellate law needs.
