Horvitz & Levy

About Horvitz & Levy

Horvitz & Levy LLP is the largest law firm in the nation specializing exclusively in appellate litigation. Since 1990, we have litigated more than 1,300 appeals in state and federal court, including more than 130 cases before the California Supreme Court. Our experience in California appeals and Ninth Circuit appeals is simply unparalleled. For six decades we have handled appellate challenges to some of California’s largest verdicts, often either obtaining reversals or major reductions of the amount awarded against our clients, or sustaining their hard-fought trial court victories. Clients around the country turn to Horvitz & Levy for its demonstrated expertise in how to win on appeal. Our services include not only full briefing and oral arguments before the appellate courts, but also consulting on trial strategy, assisting trial counsel in preserving and developing issues for appellate review, preparing post-trial motions in anticipation of appeal, and negotiating favorable settlements pending appeal. It’s not only our size and long-term record of success that sets us apart; it's also the high caliber of our lawyers, and their specialized training in the field of appellate law. Our attorneys earned their degrees at the nation's top law schools. Before joining us, they received outstanding legal training, often at national litigation firms or in government service. More than 70 percent of our lawyers started their careers in appellate clerkships. More than half served as law clerks to federal appellate judges or as staff attorneys at federal courts. Others have served as research attorneys to state court appellate justices. This breadth of legal talent means clients don’t pay for training new law school graduates, or for their cases to be staffed with large teams of inexperienced associates.
