Appealing a decision

There are several avenues for appealing a decision in Queensland Courts, depending on the court where the original decision was made.

You may wish to consult with a lawyer on whether you have valid grounds to appeal. This is a good idea even if you propose to conduct the appeal yourself.

Court staff can’t provide legal advice or make recommendations about your case but they can assist you with general court procedures and practice.
