Fayetteville, North Carolina
State and Federal Appeals Attorney

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. The work of an appeals lawyer is dramatically different from the work of a trial lawyer. At the Law Office of Bryce D. Neier, we have extensive experience preparing appellate briefs and presenting compelling legal arguments in state and federal appeals. Contact us to schedule a consultation.

Resourceful North Carolina Appellate Lawyer

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. At the Law Office of Bryce D. Neier, we have extensive experience examining trial records, researching case law related to court decisions, writing appellate briefs, and presenting persuasive oral arguments.

We are admitted to practice in all North Carolina state courts, as well as the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of North Carolina and the United States Federal Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit. Bryce D. Neier, began his legal career as a law clerk in the U.S. Attorney’s office. During his tenure there, he provided research and support to the U.S. Attorney on the Jeffrey MacDonald - (Green Beret Murder case), helping successfully deny Mr. McDonald’s petition for a new trial.

At the Law Office of Bryce D. Neier, we often handle appeals for other firms with less appellate experience. While we have gained significant skill and insight into preparing effective appeals, the greatest asset we provide our clients is the objective-dispassionate perspective we provide on their cases. We are prepared to serve pro hac vice in jurisdictions outside the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals.
