Aaron Lindstrom is an experienced appellate attorney whose courtroom skills are rooted in years as the chief appellate lawyer for the state of Michigan, as an attorney in private practice, and as an officer serving in the U.S. Army. He represents a wide range of clients — states, Fortune 100 companies, law firms, and individuals — in complex litigation at all levels of state and federal courts, including the U.S. Supreme Court.
Aaron’s track record is impressive, having been counsel of record on over 90 U.S. Supreme Court briefs, representing clients in 13 cases on the merits and presenting oral argument twice. He argued 16 times before the Michigan Supreme Court, argued en banc three times before the Sixth Circuit, and has represented clients before the Second, Third, Fifth, Seventh, Ninth, Tenth, and D.C. Circuits, the Michigan Court of Appeals, and various state and federal trial courts.
