"Alison, AKA: "shark" is the best thing that can happen to an appeal. She is the hardest working appellate lawyer that I know. She is so well versed on the law, she is sometimes also called the a walking wilkipedia of law! I, as a trial attorney, often look for her advice when a case is headed for an appeal. If you are thinking of hiring the "shark", consider yourself lucky if she is available to take your case."
