FAMILY LAW PRACTICE

When a family breaks up, many are forced into the legal system for the first time. It is a strange new world which will affect much of the rest of your life and the lives of your children. The last thing you need is to be handed over to an associate or paralegal leaving you unable to even have your questions answered. Both Brian Saylin and Lindsay Swisher work on your case, each doing what he or she does best. The amount you are charged is determined by what is being done. Regardless, you can always find out what is happening in your case and what you can expect in the future. The Law Offices of Saylin & Swisher provide unequaled experience, personal attentiveness and a distinct advantage to our clients, both inside and outside of the court room. Our firm practices exclusively in the area of Family Law and Family Law Appeals. Judges are aware that the firm can, and will, appeal, should the case call for that action. Opposing attorneys are well aware of this too. This aids in obtaining the attentiveness needed for a fair and equitable result. Our philosophy has always been to apply the vast experience we hold to every detail of every issue our client is facing.

FAMILY LAW APPELLATE PRACTICE

Litigation in Superior Court is vastly different from a proceeding in the Appellate Courts. The Superior Court has determined the facts. Courts of Appeal assume that the decision was correct and it is up to the appellant to demonstrate that there has been a substantial error made. Despite popular opinion, appellate courts do not re-try cases. Most appeals are not successful. You should be entitled to know the viability of your case before you pay for an appeal. Therefore, our philosophy is that we should review the case first to determine the viability before you proceed with the appeal. Mastery of all applicable law, and an intimate knowledge of all cases that come down from the Appellate and Supreme Courts in the area of Family Law are important aspects of the way we practice. The Law Offices of Saylin & Swisher are well known and respected in the legal community for the great successes we’ve had in the area of Family Law Appellate work.
