The Guerra Law Firm

Carrollton TX Family Law Attorneys

APPEALS

If you believe the trial court judge has made a mistake in your family law case, schedule a consultation with an experienced family appeals lawyer at The Guerra Law Firm.  Karen Guerra is certified as a specialist in family law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization, and she is an experienced appellate attorney.  She has filed numerous appeals in family law cases, and she previously served as a staff attorney for the Dallas Court of Appeals.

You cannot appeal a case simply because you don't like the judge's ruling.  Normally an appeal can only be filed if the Judge improperly included or excluded evidence, misapplied the law, violated your legal rights, or made a decision that was so contrary to the evidence that it constituted an abuse of the Judge's discretion.  In Texas, there are strict time limitations that will cut off your right to appeal.  Therefore, if you are considering an appeal, contact us today.  We will give you candid advice concerning the cost, the time factors, the procedure, and the possible outcomes. 

If you are considering filing for an appeal, make sure your attorney has the right experience.  Filing an appeal of a family law case is complex, and it requires an attorney with extensive knowledge of family law, civil trial procedure, and the rules of evidence.  It also requires an attorney with experience in investigation, legal research, clear and concise drafting of legal briefs, and persuasive argument.  For a family appeals lawyer with the right kind of experience, contact The Guerra Law Firm today.
