Minnesota Appellate Attorneys

Just because the court ruled against you in a family law case does not mean you are out of options. You may have the right to appeal the decision. However, because legal decisions are not easily overturned, it is important that you hire a lawyer who understands how to carefully research, clearly write and persuasively argue an appeal.

At El-Ghazzawy Law Offices, LLC, we have handled dozens of appeals in Minnesota. Our firm is skilled in identifying major issues that serve as the basis for an appeal, as well as pursuing these matters. Call our legal team at 612-659-0199 to discuss your specific case. It is important to be aware that there are strict deadlines governing appeals.

About Family Law Appeals

Appeals may be filed in any family law issue, but they are most commonly associated with:

• Custody and parenting time
• Property division
• Spousal maintenance

As your legal advocates, we will thoroughly review your case and advise you whether an appeal is in your best interests. If we move forward, we will compare the court’s findings with other cases to determine if there is a viable basis to appeal. We will build and deliver strong arguments in your favor, seeking to overturn the lower court’s decision. If you are on the winning end of a case and the opposing party is appealing the case, we will seek to uphold the district court’s decision.

For a sampling of our appeals, please visit our representative cases page.
