Tennessee Appeals Lawyer | Appellate Attorney in Tennessee

Have you Had a Legal Matter Tried in Front of a Judge or Jury and Believe That the Result is Wrong? Brighter Day^SM Law Can Discuss Your Options With You.

Judges and juries do not always get things right. Sometimes they apply the wrong law. Sometimes the judge refuses to allow certain evidence which would change the outcome. What do you do? The Court of Appeals in Tennessee will review the evidence and legal conclusions made in the trial court to determine whether the matter was correctly handled. This is not a new trial and there are strict rules regarding how much time you have to ask for your case to be reviewed. Brighter Day^SM Law has experienced appellate attorneys who can help you navigate the situation. It is imperative that you contact us as soon as you realize something went wrong.

Frequently Asked Questions

What kinds of cases can I appeal?

In Tennessee, litigants have a right to appeal the ruling of a judge or jury in a State Trial Court of record to the Court of Appeals. The Notice of Appeal must be filed in the Court of Appeals within 30 days of the date the judgment of the Trial Court is entered. This is a hard and fast rule. On day 31, you no longer have the ability to have your case reviewed by the Court of Appeals. If you appeal your case to the Court of Appeals and are dissatisfied with the result, you may ask the Tennessee Supreme Court to review the decision of the Court of Appeals. There are also strict time constraints for this request. Few requests to the Tennessee Supreme Court for review of a decision by the Court of Appeals are granted. There are strict criteria for the type of case the Tennessee Supreme Court will hear. The lawyers at Brighter Day^SM Law can help you decide if it is worth your time and money to pursue an appeal of your case. If you decide to move forward, the lawyers at Brighter Day^SM Law have experience practicing at the appellate level.

Client Success Stories

From the very beginning, Angela and her team were nothing short of amazing. The professionalism and patience they hold goes above and beyond. Through the tough process of custody and divorce I was met with kindness and understanding…I didn’t know the next steps to take when things took a turn for the worst, but I can’t imagine anyone else being by my side than Angela and her team. I couldn’t ask for a better attorney, and someone to show me the way, when everything felt hopeless and lost. I can’t recommend Brighter day Law enough!

— Jessica C.

Angela and her team are wonderful to work with and have done an outstanding job representing us on our case. Angela is caring, knowledgeable and understanding in giving us the legal advice we need.

Should you find yourself facing a divorce you want someone on your side who will take the emotion out of the equation and ensure your best interests are taken care of. The folks at Brighter Day℠ Law are that “someone”. They were extremely professional, courteous and thoughtful on my needs (including the many things I hadn’t thought of) and helped me get through this extremely difficult process with compassion and empathy. They came recommended by a friend who’ll never pay for a beer again when he asks for one around me. His recommendation was fantastic! Thank you, Brighter Day℠ Law!

— Terry L.

Angela Jones did an outstanding job of handling my divorce proceedings. She is very responsive and always remembers everything about my case. Additionally, she thinks ahead and is able to solve a lot of problems before they happen. Highly recommend and wouldn’t hesitate to use her again. Her office staff is also reliable and efficient.
