An appeal is a request for relief from a decision of a lower court. It’s basically asking the Court to overturn a lower court’s ruling based upon the fact that the lower court’s decision was in error. I can assist with your post conviction appeal.

- Child custody: 20%
Deciding which type of custody is best for both you as a parent and your child can be difficult. There are two main types of custody that you as a parent can establish: Legal Custody: establishes a parent's right to make key decisions for the child, including those regarding education, religion and medical care. Physical Custody: establishes with which parent a child lives. You won't know your options until you meet with me to talk about your situation and your history.

Endorsement: I endorse this lawyer's work. I am familiar with Ms. DeBernardis from her many insightful and intelligent answers to questions posted on Avvo. Always willing to help out and give good concise answers.
