Today's DJ has Horvitz & Levy expands beyond appeals as trial consulting practice grows -- Driven by the rise of nuclear verdicts, Horvitz & Levy has become increasingly involved in cases long before a notice of appeal is filed, helping trial teams shape legal strategy while maintaining the collaborative culture that has defined the appellate boutique for more than 50 years.
- Founded by appellate pioneer Ellis Horvitz, the firm helped establish the modern appellate boutique. Today, with more than 40 lawyers in Burbank and San Francisco, Horvitz & Levy remains one of the nation's largest firms devoted solely to appeals. Firm leaders say its recent growth has been driven as much by trial consulting as by traditional appellate work.
"We're at a point where we've seen tremendous growth in both our appellate practice and our related trial consulting practice," partner David M. Axelrad said. "Clients increasingly understand that appellate lawyers can add value before and during trial, not just after a verdict."
