Knowledgeable In Case Analysis & Appellate Court Procedures
Windows and deadlines for appeal of family law outcomes in court are strict. Many procedural requirements apply, making prior experience and in-depth legal knowledge essential.
Our Orange County legal team is a respected resource for:
Thorough analysis of your divorce, custody or other trial and its outcome in order to gauge your likelihood of success with a well-prepared appeal.
Pursuit of the appropriate and most effective available recourse, whether that requires drafting and presenting an appeal or contesting another type of order by writ, as required.
Our Newport Beach appeals attorneys bring together many decades of experience in domestic relations and appellate court matters. No case is too complex or adversarial for our firm, and we offer practical, savvy counsel without creating Burch Shepard Family Law Group hope.
If you need to consider every option for contesting and reversing an unfair family law decision — as a party to that decision or a fellow lawyer with limited or no appeals experience — we encourage you to contact our firm today.
“If you are looking for a law firm that is no only highly competent but also deeply compassionate and committed to your case, I cannot recommend them highly enough.”
A few years ago i was going through one of the most difficult periods of my life. I was in the middle of a highly contentious custody dispute in which I had lost custody of my daughter. I was overwhelmed, discouraged, and unsure of where to to next. I was fortunate enough to have met Courtney Shepard. From the very beginning, working with Courtney was a completely different experience from any other law firm I had encountered. After previously working with, and ultimately dismissing, two other attorneys, i knew right away that this team stood apart. Courtney took the time to truly understand my case in depth an, just as importantly, to listen to me. I never once felt like just another client. Her team, Shawna and Paul, were equally exceptional, supportive, attentive and genuinely caring throughout the entire process. Over the course of two years of court hearings and filings, they stood by me every step of the way with professionalism, compassion, and dedication. Today I am incredibly grateful to say that I now have joint legal custody of my daughter , an she is one again part of my life an we couldn't be happier. Courtney Shepard and the entire team at Burch Shepard Law Group helped me achieve something I once feared was out of reach. I am eternally grateful to them. If you are looking for a law firm that is no only highly competent but also deeply compassionate and committed to your case, I cannot recommend them highly enough.
