The procedures, technicalities, and standards of appellate work are different than the trial court or bankruptcy court. Appellate work holds many pit-falls for the inexperienced. It is important that you hire an attorney to handle your appeal that knows the area of law that is applicable to your case and also the appellate system in order to protect your rights and have your appeal heard. Keep in mind that an appeal must be filed generally 14 or 30 days after the judgment is filed, depending on the court that gave the judgment. Failure to timely file an appeal or follow other procedural requirements generally prevents an appeal from going forward. If you believe you may have an issue that is appropriate for an appellate action, please call us immediately so you do not lose your rights to appellate relief.
