After
a final judgment is made in a family law case, the parties have a short period
of time in which to lodge an appeal and should consult with a family lawyer
immediately afterwards to avoid missing out on a potential right to an appeal.
Often clients will notice factual mistakes in judgments that occur for a
variety of reasons. However, even when there is a clear factual error and
everybody agrees that this is a mistake, this does not necessarily mean that
the whole decision is invalid or an ‘appeal should be allowed’.
