The time has come for you to file for divorce. You tried your best but your marriage just cannot be saved. You have asked around, and you have been referred to several great divorce attorneys. But how do you choose the right lawyer for you?
If you meet with more than one attorney, you will clearly see that each lawyer has their own individual personality and will provide you with a different type of legal experience. We hope that you will visit with a couple of the attorneys that are on your list and that you will take the time to carefully choose the lawyer that you will use for your divorce. Some attorneys do not charge for consultations, so you have the ability to meet with a few before you decide. When you sit with a lawyer for the first time, you need to ask them pointed questions. Do not be shy! Our family law attorneys will attest to the fact that if you have a lawyer that promises you the sun, the moon, the stars, and every planet in the universe, they might just be blowing smoke.
Lawyers are supposed to do their best for you. That means zealously and ethically representing you. While we are sorry that you are even having to pick a lawyer and going through a divorce, it is an important process. It is not something you should take lightly. It is not a process where you should just pick the cheapest and easiest way to be done with it. When it comes to choosing an attorney, you want to decide on the right one for you the first time. If you go through two or three lawyers, your new attorney might have to fix another attorney’s mistakes which could end up costing you more. Once a final judgment is entered, it is extraordinarily hard to get it overturned or changed for just any reason. The bottom line is that you need to meet with a couple of attorneys to see who is a good fit for you and for your specific case.
