Chadbourne’s litigation ranks are filled with seasoned attorneys whose appellate experiences and knowledge contribute greatly to Chadbourne’s overall appellate talents, including several attorneys who served as clerks in various state and federal courts. Indeed, the development of appellate expertise begins early at Chadbourne.
