- Q. How soon can I file an appeal for family court after the first hearing? Judge made decision but haven't received final.
- A: Was your first hearing a final hearing or a temporary hearing? If it was a temporary hearing you cannot file an appeal, unfortunately. The good news, however, is that you still have a chance at a favorable outcome in the next hearing so try not to worry too much.
- Q. When a family member has temporary custody of your child and visitation is on their discretion and they want let you
- A: What does your order say? Stick to that. While it’s heartbreaking to not be able to see the child, I would advise against doing anything that the order may prohibit or even that could cause an issue. Do you have an attorney? Maybe speaking to one about your exact situation could get you quicker results. Just don’t do anything that could potentially backfire on you during your final determination hearing.
- Q. Do I have to hire a lawyer in order to regain custody of my child?
- A: Based on what you’ve shared, I would encourage you to hire a lawyer. There may need to be more than just a petition and having an attorney analyze your case prior to filing could be beneficial. This is typically not a case that you should approach alone as there seems to be a few different things to consider.
