After law school, and after trying dozens of cases, Aaron completed advocacy training at the National Family Law Trial Institute in Houston, Texas.

Appellate work is a special type of advocacy. While some of the principles from trial work also apply to appeals, additional skills are required due to the unique demands of research, briefing and oral argument. Although appeals are time-sensitive, appellate work requires careful deliberation, thought and planning. Because appeals are governed by technical rules, a good appeal can be lost due to a simple rule violation that has nothing to do with the merits of the case.

We use a proprietary system for appellate work, ranging from our intake process all the way to binding the brief, to ensure thoroughness and quality control. Our system incorporates software powered by artificial intelligence to ensure that each citation to the record is the most powerful option possible. While most appellate attorneys outsource different parts of the work, we acquired equipment to keep all of our appellate work in-house in order to minimize outsourcing and delay.

We offer private consultations and co-counsel relationships for other attorneys who practice primarily in trial courts.

We help clients navigate complex family transitions in matters involving income determination, asset valuation and division, and parental rights. We serve clients in Oklahoma state and federal courts in matrimonial, criminal defense, and catastrophic injury cases. Every lawyer at the firm is a trial lawyer with sound advocacy training and jury trial experience.

Our conduct in litigation, trial, and appeal is informed by our advanced training and grounded upon:

  • The Bounds of Advocacy promulgated by the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers
  • The work of Stephen Susman reflected and codified at www.trialbyagreement.com
  • The trial rules issued by Federal Judge Claire V. Egan, and
  • The Standards for Appellate Conduct established by the Supreme Court of Texas.

We are highly skilled at putting together and trying a lean, efficient case based on facts. Our focus is on credibility: when we say something, we have the evidence to back it up, and we get to it.

We practice at the forefront of family law. Our law firm is listed in the 2022 Chambers Family/Matrimonial High Net Worth Guide and in U.S. News & World Report’s annual “Best Law Firms” directory.
