Skilled Appellate Advocate

Thomas Higgs is a highly skilled attorney with an impressive background in appellate practice and commercial litigation. His deep understanding of appellate procedures and strategic legal arguments proved invaluable in my case. While his legal expertise is unmatched, I noticed his response times could be inconsistent at times. Additionally, his fees, though justified by his results, were on the higher side. Despite these minor concerns, his ability to navigate complex commercial disputes and his recognition by Best Lawyers speaks volumes about his capabilities. I highly recommend him for any appellate or litigation needs, especially when facing high-stakes legal battles. His attention to detail and Courtroom presence are truly commendable.
