In short, two words: experience and results. Donald K. Vowell has handled more than 35 appeals in the Tennessee and Federal Court systems, with a record of 23 wins, 4 losses, and 2 draws since 1988. He has won reversal of United States District Court decisions 5 times (4 times in the Sixth Circuit and once in the Seventh Circuit). He has won reversal of Tennessee state trial court decisions 11 times, he has preserved favorable trial court decisions in numerous other cases, and has been successful in obtaining and winning interlocutory appeals in both the Tennessee Court of Appeals and the Tennessee Supreme Court. He has handled 5 appeals before the Tennessee Supreme Court, winning 4. He has argued successfully before the en banc panel of the Sixth Circuit (all 13 judges at the same time). He has also successfully opposed petitions for writs of certiorari to the United States Supreme Court.

Whether you are an attorney or a litigant seeking appellate counsel, Mr. Vowell would be glad to discuss your case with you.
