Family Law Appeals

If you are dissatisfied with the outcome of your divorce, property division, child custody and placement, or child support case, you have the right to appeal. An appeal is based on mistakes made by the trial judge in either applying the correct law or in making findings of fact which are clearly wrong and not supported by the evidence. Our attorneys will carefully examine your case to find opportunities that may allow us to get the results you need.

Post-Judgment Modification and Revision

An appeal is not the only way you can seek to change the outcome of your family law case. You also have the right to seek modification of the divorce decree, including changes regarding child support, child custody, and spousal support or alimony. Generally, the division of the marital property cannot be changed following a divorce. Modification or changes to the terms of the divorce can be based on many factors, the most common being a major life change on the part of you or your former spouse that should be reflected in your case. Some examples are changes in income, changes in the needs of your children, a change in one parent's ability to care for the children, a relocation or move, or other job or life changes.
