Details

Independent, Pro-Business, Flat-Fee Appellate Specialist With a Half- Century of Litigation Experience

I am a Washington, D.C.-based appellate specialist who wears two hats:

At my independent, nationwide, appellate litigation boutique, Capital Appellate Advocacy PLLC, I handle appeals for individual corporations and write amicus curiae (friend of the court) briefs for entire industries, primarily in the Supreme Court and federal courts of appeals. I charge clients a flat fee rather than bill by the hour.

At the Atlantic Legal Foundation, a national, nonprofit, public interest law firm, I am Executive Vice President & General Counsel. I conduct the Foundation’s amicus program by writing Supreme Court and lower court briefs in cases involving  individual liberty, free enterprise, protection of property rights, limited and responsible government, sound science in judicial and regulatory proceedings, and effective education, including parental rights and school choice.

My volunteer professional activities include serving as Chair of the DRI Center for Law and Public Policy and Chair of the Appellate Law Section of the Federation of Defense & Corporate Counsel.

I am proud to be a Fellow of the American Academy of Appellate Lawyers and a graduate of Dartmouth College and Harvard Law School.

My legal career began in 1972 as an Honors Program attorney in the Civil Division of the U.S. Department of Justice. Two years later I joined a now-global law firm. Launching my own law firm in 2016 was the best decision of my legal career.  

Barbara Ebner and I have been married for 51 years. We enjoy traveling throughout the United States, especially Hawaii, and spending as much time as possible with our two daughters and their husbands, and with our six grandchildren.
