well I’ve been filing family law appeals
0:06
for the past 19 years I actually started
0:09
off as a pargal working on appeals and
0:12
working on motion papers before I became
0:14
an attorney so I’ve been working on
0:16
appeals for quite some time what I try
0:19
and do is I try and frame the appeal
0:21
from the earliest day possible to try
0:24
and put myself in a position where I
0:26
have the highest chances of success and
0:29
remember the losing party from the trial
0:31
court has a very high burden of
0:34
convincing the judges in the higher
0:36
Court why the lower court order should
0:38
be changed so you put yourself in a
0:41
position where you try and explain why
0:44
the lower court made a mistake and if
0:46
you were the Victor you try and explain
0:49
why it should be upheld and how the
0:51
lower court got it right
