If you are considering a family law appeal, Kathryn Schiller can represent you during the process.
In North Carolina, divorce, child custody, child support, post separation support, alimony, and property division (equitable distribution), are heard in District Court. Final decisions in District Court can usually be appealed to the North Carolina Court of Appeals.
The legal team at Schiller & Schiller has considerable appellate experience, having litigated more than 100 appeals, and is well-qualified to pursue your appeal. With comprehensive knowledge of the appellate rule system, we can advise you when a judgment in your case is a mistake of law and justice has not been served.
The appeals process can be costly and time consuming. A decision should be appealed when there is either an erroneous interpretation of the law or when there is a real need for a change in the current case law. Although parties may be dissatisfied with the outcome of their case, the decision may be an accurate interpretation of the law and will not be overturned on appeal. For this reason, you should have your case carefully reviewed by a qualified attorney to determine whether it is prudent to initiate an appeal.
