Havertown, PA personal injury attorney Daniel J. Siegel talks about his appellate and writing practice. He explains that his firm operates with a somewhat unusual practice. While many in the local legal community know them for workers’ compensation and related areas, the firm also maintains a large appellate and legal writing practice, representing other lawyers in a wide range of matters. This includes handling appeals, preparing pre-trial motions, and drafting responses to motions. Remarkably, about half of the firm’s clients are other attorneys.

The firm regularly appears in all appellate courts in Pennsylvania. He notes that in the coming week alone, he will be arguing three separate appeals on different issues for three different law firms that specifically retained them for their expertise. Their reputation often precedes them, particularly in helping guide cases toward the Pennsylvania Supreme Court, which exercises discretion in case selection. While few cases are accepted, the firm’s strategic approach and appellate expertise have given them substantial influence.

He emphasizes that the firm’s impact extends across civil litigation, including personal injury, injured workers’ rights, and broader civil injury matters, making them a go-to resource for lawyers statewide. Other attorneys frequently consult them for motions to dismiss or for summary judgment, drafting precise responses to protect cases from early dismissal. While no firm wins every case, their success rate is notably high, earning them recognition on attorney listservs and in legal circles as a trusted, results-driven team.

Ultimately, their team-based approach, deep knowledge of the law, and focus on appellate strategy make them a first choice for lawyers seeking to secure the best outcomes for their clients throughout Pennsylvania.
