What are the chances of winning an appeal in custody?
The chances of winning an appeal in custody are slim, but they're not zero. There's a lot of factors that go into whether or not you're going to win your custody case.
In fact, there are just as many factors that go into losing your case—but the main reason is that nobody wins every time.
One thing to keep in mind is that if you're appealing a decision that was made by a judge or other official who isn't working on a "bench" (a group of judges who hear cases together). Judges aren't always familiar with all the details of each case, so they may make mistakes when making decisions about child custody.
It's a good thing that you've got a good lawyer, because we're going to need one.
If you're not sure whether or not you have a good chance of winning your appeal in custody, it may help to know that there are three things that can make a difference:
1) The judge's bias towards the mother (and vice versa). The judge should be impartial and fair, but sometimes judges are not. If you feel that your judge is biased against either parent or both, then this could potentially change the outcome of your case.
2) The amount of evidence presented by each side (including what was presented during trial). If there's little evidence against the other party, then they might win even if they didn't do anything wrong! For example, if one parent who was convicted of battery on another parent gets more time than the other party who did nothing wrong except be in front of someone who hit them… well… What can we say? It just doesn't make sense.
3) Whether or not there's been any change in circumstances since the original trial (or even since their last visit). If there have been major changes in either parent's life since they were last seen together with their children.
