An appeal is a plea to a higher court to reverse a lower court’s decision. Appeals are only intended to correct genuine legal mistakes – it doesn’t apply if a litigant simply disagrees with a ruling.

What Our Clients Are Saying About Us
Having to need family legal representation when I least expected it- 14 years after my divorce and with 1 late-teen minor child left in the house- I am so grateful I reached out to Carrie and her team (Courtney!). My brother had also recently used Carrie with much success (how I found her) and while she isn't the cheapest, you certainly get what you pay for. They are kind, respectful and compassionate, and always kept me promptly informed. I was able to avoid court, successfully settle in mediation with all I was asking for, and move on with our lives while keeping my son safe from his other parent. Thank you Carrie!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Grateful for Carrie Block – A Steady, Strategic, and Compassionate Advocate I’m incredibly grateful to have had Carrie Block as my attorney during my divorce. From our very first meeting, I knew I was in good hands. Carrie is the perfect combination of calm, knowledgeable, and fiercely strategic. She listened closely, gave honest guidance, and helped me feel empowered through every step of the process. Carrie worked diligently to ensure that I received a fair and balanced outcome, even in the face of difficult and unproductive behavior from the other side. She was always composed, clear, and focused on what truly mattered—protecting my rights and helping me move forward with stability and peace of mind. She never made me feel like just another case. Carrie brought humanity and heart to every conversation, and her ability to break down legal complexities into understandable steps was a tremendous comfort. I truly felt like I had a strong, compassionate ally by my side. If you’re looking for someone who will advocate for you with both intelligence and integrity, Carrie Block is the one you want in your corner. I can’t thank her enough.

I appreciate everyone at Holstrom, Block & Park. I first had Melissa as my attorney and she was awesome. At my mediation she was beyond prepared and two steps in front of the opposing attorney. When the opposing attorney said she didn’t have something or wasn’t prepared, Melissa already had it prepared for them. She was tough and didn’t take any crap. I was very impressed. My case was later moved to another attorney and I was given Carrie Block. Carrie’s experience is shown. I had Courtney as my paralegal from the very beginning and throughout my case. She is legit and I very much appreciate her. Quick responses and she is on it. My process wouldn’t have been half as good without Courtney.

I have been extremely impressed with attorneys, Carrie Block and Sherri Munson, and their paralegal, Courtney during my divorce proceedings. From the start, they have been exceptionally organized and detail-oriented. Even though my case had already been lingering for nearly two and a half years, Carrie and Sherrie quickly became deeply familiar with its complexities and legal nuances, especially as they relate to contentious divorce proceedings. Their knowledge and preparation have made a significant difference in the progression of my case. Despite the time crunch of having just one month to prepare for their initial court appearance, they were thoroughly knowledgeable and brought a confident, well-organized and reassuring presence to the courtroom. I also appreciate their honesty and straightforwardness. They have been supportive without being misleading, and have provided me with realistic guidance. I highly recommend Carrie, Sherrie, and Courtney to anyone seeking a legal team that is professional, prepared, knowledgeable, and invested in their clients’ cases.
