Appellate Litigation

Ruffin Law Firm is dedicated exclusively to appellate advocacy. 

I offer full appellate representation in South Carolina, the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals, and the Supreme Court of the United States. I also engage in trial support to ensure that strong legal issues are properly preserved for appellate review.

My core philosophy is to maintain the highest standards of integrity, honesty, and respect for the Court, while vigorously advocating for you in your appeal. Comprehensive analytical reading, thorough legal research, clear and concise writing, and strong oral advocacy are integral to my appellate representation.

By exclusively handling appeals, I have the skills and experience to maximize your chance of succeeding on appeal. I stay up to date on developments in the law in a wide variety of subjects by reading the most recent appellate decisions in South Carolina, the Fourth Circuit, and the Supreme Court. Whether you are appealing a judgement below or defending against an appeal, I will work with you to find reversible errors in your case and the defenses against them.
