About August Richard
August Richard Soltis is an attorney admitted to state and federal bars across the Northeast and beyond. He appears on rolls that include the U.S. Supreme Court and the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit, as well as state bars in New Jersey, New York and Georgia. Those admissions shape the geographic reach of his practice.
He earned his law degree from Seton Hall University School of Law after attending Seton Hall in Newark, N.J. His academic background kept him close to the courts that would define his early career.
Soltis began his legal work in private practice. He gained experience filing pleadings and briefs, managing pretrial proceedings, and appearing in court. Over time he expanded the range of courts in which he can practice by obtaining admission to multiple jurisdictions, including federal appellate and the nation’s highest court.
Admission to the U.S. Supreme Court and the Third Circuit is a practical credential. It allows him to handle filings that rise to the appellate level and to assist clients whose matters cross state lines or involve federal law. Admissions in New Jersey, New York and Georgia further enable him to take on cases that require local court appearances and procedural knowledge in different state systems.
His work encompasses both trial-level practice and appellate filings. He prepares briefs, handles oral argument, and manages litigation tasks that vary by forum. That mix means he spends time drafting persuasive legal writings while also preparing witnesses and evidence for hearings and trials.
Office listings identify his practice under his own name. He maintains an office that uses the styling AUGUST R. SOLTIS, ESQ., which serves as the public point of contact for his legal work.
Colleagues and opposing counsel find the practicalities of multi-jurisdiction practice familiar in his files: motions tied to federal procedure, state-court scheduling, and appellate calendars that require careful timing. That day-to-day coordination across venues is a steady part of his caseload.
Currently he carries a practice centered on civil litigation and appellate matters across New Jersey, New York and Georgia.
