Writs and Appeals

Experience Challenging Cities, Counties, and Municipal Actors

When the interpretation of the law is at issue, The Loftin Firm LLP is here to assist you. L. Sue Loftin and Michael Stump both have extensive experience in writ and appellate practice. Our attorneys at The Loftin Firm LLP have successfully handled countless petitions to the Courts for extraordinary writs, administrative mandamus, and traditional mandamus to challenge the actions or inaction of cities, counties, and other political subdivisions in the State of California. If a state agency, local government or governmental body, or office holder fails to abide by the law or misinterprets the law to your detriment, The Loftin Firm LLP will vigorously represent your interests at every level.

Appealing Trial Court Decisions

Experience brings comfort. While many attorneys are uncomfortable pursuing appeals beyond lower court, L. Sue Loftin and Michael Stump both consider representing clients in appeals to be one of the most enjoyable and rewarding aspects of their practice. The Loftin Firm LLP makes federal and state appeals regularly as part of its practice, resulting in reported decisions throughout California. Mr. Stump brings the experience of over thirty published appellate decisions between the California Courts of Appeal and California Supreme Court.

Preparing the Case

If you are encountering unlawful or misguided resistance to your administrative application or hearing, or if opposing counsel has confused a court into an incorrect ruling, contact our office as soon as possible. Timeframes for appeal are short, and specific steps must be taken at an early stage to ensure the record adequately frames the issue. We work side-by-side with trial counsel, or in the case of administrative appeals, with the professionals preparing and submitting the application. Trust the preparation of your case to experience, and let that preparation send the message that everyone must follow the law.
