Respected Appellate And Trial Lawyer In Livingston County

Filing both civil and criminal appeals, attorney William F. McGee is skilled and knowledgeable in all aspects of appellate practice, including:

  • Analyzing court records in search of justification for appealing a verdict or conviction
  • Filing notices of appeal in the right courts and in the correct style and formatting
  • Researching and writing detailed, persuasive appropriate briefs
  • Appealing cases to the Kentucky Court of Appeals or the Kentucky Supreme Court

An unsatisfactory verdict or outcome in Kentucky is worth taking to an attorney’s office in person, if possible, or remotely through teleconferences.

Attorney McGee’s Past Work Is Unmatched By Most Attorneys

Today, lawyers and judges throughout Kentucky often look to the published decisions in attorney McGee’s cases for guidance. For his clients, attorney McGee’s work has resulted in favorable, published decisions in legal areas including  (1) a murder defendant’s right to test evidence, (2) a drug trafficking charge’s dismissal due to an illegal search, (3) a wrongful death action against an insurance company, (4) a certified public accountant husband’s misappropriation of over $2,000,000.00 in a divorce, (5) a challenge to a widow’s claim to land and money valued at over $850,000.00, and (6) a contentious real estate dispute.
