Appeals
Courts try their best to make fair judgments in different family law matters based on the individual circumstances of each case. However, mistakes happen, and if you think the court has given an unjust ruling for your family law case, you can make an appeal to contest its decision. However, appealing a lower court’s decision is one of the most challenging areas of law, and should only be handled by a knowledgeable trial attorney who has a deep understanding of how the wheels turn in the legal court system.

Understanding the Appeals Process
Many people mistake an appeal for a new trial. On the contrary, it refers to a process where an unsatisfied party requests a higher court to review the outcome of their case whether you have received a just decision. Since it is strictly a review of a previous trial, no new evidence is introduced and the appeal is given in black and white with details of legal bases that mandate a second look at your case.
After the request has been made, the court analyzes the original trial transcript, involving testimony and relevant evidence. If the appeals court determines that the trial court ruling was unfair, it may instruct the original court to reopen the case and correct specific inconsistencies in the order, giving you a chance to present your case in a better way and achieve favorable outcomes.
To make sure the higher courts takes your case seriously, you need to provide solid grounds for reviewing the trial order. Our family law appellate attorney is experienced in filing for appeals and in aggressively pursuing positive outcomes after an unfair ruling. We work to find loopholes in the original judgment and persuade higher courts for considering your appeal. We strive to turn the tide of your case by developing a comprehensive legal strategy that is in line with your interests and goals, and provide vigorous representation.
