How To Find The Right Lawyer for your Divorce

Posted by Gordon Shayne | Oct 23, 2024 | 0 Comments

SHOPPING FOR A FLORIDA DIVORCE LAWYER

Except for simple Divorce cases, most people who have gone through a Divorce in Florida, would agree that hiring the right kind of lawyer makes all the difference. The process of “Shopping” for a Lawyer should be done thoughtfully. You can write down all of the qualities that you think are important and list your questions before you meet with the lawyer for a consultation. 

Shopping for a Divorce lawyer is not like shopping for the best price for tires. After all, you are entrusting the handling of your Divorce or other Family Law case with a lawyer who you want to fight for you and has the necessary knowledge to succeed on your behalf!

In many situations, it is best for the client and lawyer to meet for a consultation. Divorce and Family Law are specialized areas of the law.  A lawyer who new to this area or who has spent years in other areas of the law may not be best for you. Make your choice wisely.

When children are involved in these kinds of proceedings, the complexities of the law become all the more important. These kinds of cases demand that the lawyer possesses additional training and knowledge regarding parenting, child support and all types of legal issues affecting parenting rights.  

You will want a lawyer who understands you and your goals and objectives and can make you feel at ease when discussing the issues you deem most important. For many years, I have been told that along with my staff and excellent business manager, that when their case concluded, they found the experience to have been highly beneficial in meeting their main goals and reducing their stress throughout the entire process.
