Family Law Appeals
Generally speaking, Arizona appellate courts support the settling of cases based on substance and merit over the strict compliance of procedural and technical rules. In this regard, appellate courts are responsive to the needs of unrepresented or poorer parties who face stronger opponents.
That does not mean however, that procedural rules and technical issues are not important. Our attorneys have a comprehensive understanding of these rules and the standards appellate courts use in family law appeal cases.
Cates, Hanson, Sargeant & Schoenau, PLC will argue your case with skill, legal insight and eloquence. Our goal will be to use the legal system to achieve your goals and obtain justice for you.
