What is a family law appeal?

Simply put, an appeal is a request to a higher court to review the decision of a lower court. So, if the trial court decision impacts you or your family in a way that you cannot live with, you can file an appeal to try to obtain a decision you can live with!

Your Appellate Advocates

  • Speaker Law firm is fantastic! Twice a judge errantly ruled against me causing me to lose custody of my three boys. Speaker Law firm worked quickly to filing my appeals which we won both times! I cannot thank them enough for the professional work they did to advocate for me to keep my boys with me where they belonged!

  • Liisa and her team go above and beyond to help you through the appeal process and I am so very grateful for them. Cody is always so easy to talk to and even if he doesn't have an answer right away which he usually does he will get back to you in a timely manner and very professional. Thank you speaker law firm! You help me keep the faith for my babies!

  • I had to hire Liisa Speaker for a Hague Convention appeal. She was amazing in every way. Not only is she extremely good at her work, knowledgeably, and efficient, but she was also so honest and real and actually cared about my situation, life, and my children, which is rare. I’ve dealt with several lawyers and did not come across anyone as genuine as Liisa, nor as competent. I don’t think there is a better lawyer out there.

  • From start to finish, the folks at Speaker Law Firm handled our adoption appeal with equal parts of professional expertise and compassion. Our case saw many twists and turns over nearly 3.5 years of litigation, and Speaker eventually helped our family prevail at the highest court in Michigan. We thank God daily for these legal warriors and their ability to make our family permanent. In many ways, they've become members of our family too through this process. We will forever be grateful for the sleepless nights, collaborative efforts and mainly for the love they extended to us at the most difficult of times.
