Are you going through a divorce? It is a stressful, confusing, and emotional experience and it’s best to have a divorce attorney to guide you through the experience. To help you make a well-informed decision on which divorce attorney is best for you, below are 3 questions you should ask a divorce attorney during the consultation:
- How long have you been practicing family law and working divorce cases?
Your divorce attorney will guide you through the entire divorce process, so you’ll want to work with someone that has a lot of experience working divorce cases. An understanding of family law is needed as it will impact the outcome of your case directly. You should ask the divorce attorney how many cases they have handled that are similar to yours, as it will give you a likely idea of the outcome of your case.
- What can I expect the process to be like?
Divorces are difficult and overwhelming. Each one is unique, and the length of the process depends on all the issues that will need to be solved. The divorce attorney can walk you through all the steps of the divorce process and how they pertain to your specific case. Communication is an important part of the divorce process, so you should ask these questions early to have a clear understanding of how the process will work.
- How does the billing process work?
Each divorce attorney will have their own cost structure, and no two cases will cost the same. Ask these questions before hiring a divorce attorney so you are aware of costs before the process starts.
