The Key to Successful Family Law Appeals

Appellate attorneys use a different set of skills than trial attorneys. Successful appellate attorneys are required to pay close attention to detail and to develop research skills that exceed those generally used in the trial phase of litigation.

Family Law Appeal Preparation

Appellate attorneys prepare documents called appellate briefs, which are then presented to a panel of appellate judges. These briefs are based on a thorough review of the trial record and detailed analysis of the laws and procedures involved in the family law or civil litigation matter.

An appellate brief will examine existing case law as well as the legislative rules and procedures involved in the case, and these briefs often take hours of careful research and meticulous analysis.

The Appeal Process

In most trials, the attorney must be an outstanding speaker, as much of what occurs in a trial occurs in the spoken form. For an appellate attorney, a strong grasp of written communication is more important than convincing speech. In some cases, the appellate attorney will present the case orally to the appellate judges, but an attorney cannot even successfully get an appeal without first providing a clear and convincing written appeal.
