Family Law Appeals We Handle

We represent clients in appeals involving all aspects of Kentucky family law. Select an area below to learn more about how we can help.

Child Custody Appeals

Challenging custody determinations, parenting time schedules, and relocation decisions when the court misapplied the law or facts. We review the record for errors in how the court applied Kentucky’s best-interest standard.

Child Support Appeals

Appealing incorrect child support calculations, imputation of income, or deviation from the guidelines. We examine whether the court properly applied the Kentucky child support guidelines and supported any deviation with adequate findings.

Divorce & Property Division Appeals

Challenging inequitable property division, classification of marital vs. non-marital property, and valuation errors. We review whether the court’s division of property followed Kentucky law and was supported by the evidence.

Spousal Support / Maintenance Appeals

Appealing maintenance awards that don’t follow Kentucky law or represent an abuse of discretion. We assess whether the court properly considered the statutory factors in setting the amount and duration of maintenance.

Paternity & Parentage Appeals

Appeals involving establishment of parentage, the rights of biological parents, and related custody matters. We review whether the court followed the correct legal standards in resolving questions of parentage.

Domestic Violence Order Appeals

Challenging the issuance or denial of protective orders when the court erred in applying the law or the evidence did not support its findings. These appeals are time-sensitive and fact-intensive.

Termination of Parental Rights Appeals

Appealing TPR decisions when the court failed to follow proper procedures or the evidence doesn’t support termination. Because parental rights are fundamental, these cases demand careful appellate scrutiny.

Dependency, Neglect & Abuse Appeals

Appeals from DNA findings and dispositional orders in child-protective cases when the court erred. We review whether the findings were supported by substantial evidence and the correct legal standards.
