When Should a Family Law Decision Be Appealed?

Decisions made in family court in the state of Florida are often contentious.  One of the parties is likely unhappy with the decisions that are made.  What often happens is that both sides enter the proceedings with a positive feeling about the outcome.  When the dust settles someone is usually left feeling like “I did NOT see THAT coming”.

Now, let’s get down to the business of WHEN it is appropriate to appeal a family law court decision.  It is more common than perhaps you suspect that there are glaring errors in the proceedings.  You also may be the victim of fraud by your spouse and his or her attorney.  That couldn’t happen…could it?  NAAH…never!

It’s time to pick up the phone and call a St. Petersburg family law appeal attorney.  You get two for the price of one with Kidder and Bennett.  These two established, successful Pinellas County family lawyers will bring a combined half century of experience to your challenge.  Call the office today located at 275 96th Ave. North at (927) 821-8000.

Domestic Violence Issues.

In the Sunshine State civil courts issue domestic violence injunctions.  If battery is part of the charge, then the criminal courts may get involved.  You want to talk about stressful, the hearings that follow will test the most grounded of individuals.  When someone you have cared about hurts you the reaction is often one of denial.  What did I do to prompt this behavior?

There is not only physical damage, but potentially emotional turmoil and concern over minor children in the relationship.  Please get to a safe place where you are free from additional harm.  We suggest Community Action Stop Abuse (CASA).  Call the domestic violence hot line or simply dial 911 if danger is imminent.

When you have cleared your head a bit, then call on Kidder and Bennett.  They bring over a half-century of knowledge and experience to the table.  Nat Kidder and Bill Bennett are domestic violence abuse attorneys in Pinellas County.  Call them today and make an appointment for a free consultation at their office in St. Petersburg (727) 821-8000 - and stay as calm as possible.
