Civil and family law

Civil appeals

An unfavourable decision does not always carry the same right of challenge. We review what the court decided, how you were notified and which grounds may support an appeal in your particular proceedings.

How we can help

Reviewing the decision

We examine the decision alongside the pleadings, evidence and procedural history. The aim is to identify a specific issue and assess what a review might achieve, rather than simply repeat the original claim.

Reconsideration and appeal

We assess whether reconsideration or an appeal is available for the particular decision. We prepare the relevant grounds and explain which issues can be raised and what supporting material the application will need.

Queja and cassation

Queja challenges and cassation appeals have distinct purposes and requirements. We examine their relevance to the case, the decision being challenged and the conditions for admission before recommending either of these routes.

An informed decision

We explain the arguments, limitations and anticipated costs so you can make an informed decision. We also review how an appeal affects compliance with the decision and whether any additional application may be needed.

Frequently asked questions

Can every decision be appealed?

No. Available challenges depend on the decision and applicable rules. The initial review checks which route, if any, is available and its requirements.

Does appealing automatically suspend the judgment?

This should not be assumed. We will review the effect of the particular appeal and whether an additional application is appropriate.
