Family Appeals
Divorce, separation, child custody, visitation, paternity, and support matters are difficult and confusing issues for any family to endure. Especially if these matters have brought you into Family or Supreme Court.
If you are dissatisfied with a court determination in your Family or Supreme Court matter you may have the right to appeal the decision and outcome. The appeal is the next stage in the legal process after a trial when a party believes that an error was committed by the lower court, the opposing attorney or their defense attorney at any time during the proceedings.
A party has 30 days to file their Notice of Appeal after they have been served with a copy of the judgment or Order to appealed along with a notice of its entry.
While there are many possible issues that may be raised in an appeal, several include, but are not limited to:
- Child custody & placement
- Child support determination
- Removal of your children from your home
- Placement of your child into a juvenile facility
- A determination of child abuse or neglect
Our experienced attorneys are available to thoroughly review your case and advise you on the appellate process. If you would like to speak to an attorney regarding your family law appeal, please call: 518-218-7100 or submit your inquiry online.
