Appellate |
DKL’s in-depth knowledge of the appellate court system proves invaluable
to firm clients as they work their way through the complex appellate process.
Our lawyers include a current judge, a former staff attorney for the U.S. Court
of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit, and former clerk for the Georgia Supreme Court – providing
DKL unique insight into the judicial decision-making process.
DKL lawyers have represented clients in matters before the United States Supreme
Court, the United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit, the United
States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit, the Georgia Supreme Court, and
the Georgia Court of Appeals.
Our lawyers have successfully represented clients in complex appeals in various
areas of the law.
Recent significant appellate victories of DKL attorneys include:
•
successfully arguing before the Georgia Court of Appeals that, following the
expiration of an exclusive services agreement, a public hospital may terminate
a physician’s privileges in areas other than those provided for in the
exclusive agreement
•
successfully arguing before the Georgia Court of Appeals that the expert affidavit
requirement of O.C.G.A. § 9-11-9.1 does not apply to employers other than
licensed health care facilities
