Ms. Jolanda Jones is by far the best attorney I ever had. Ms. Jones stayed in contact with me and when my phone was off she dug deep in my paper work and found a friend of the family to contact me. I had an evaiding in a moter vehicle. Which is a felony charge. I had a trial set. Ms. Jones fought a good fight and my case was DISMISSED!!! I really thank you Ms. Jones for representing me. I also want to thank God for sending me this angel. If you need a lawyer I highly recommend Ms. Jolanda Jones. Blessings to you all!!!!!

Ms. Jones is arguably the best attorney I had the pleasure of being helped by. Not only was she extremely professional and well-mannered the entire duration of the case, but she fought long and hard to get my case dismissed. She made sure to gather all details and find every possible solution in order for me to receive the best and most fair outcome. She did not judge or belittle me in any way and always made sure I was well informed about the details of my case. She is well versed in criminal law and strives to represent all clients regardless of how she was appointed in the most fair and efficient way possible. I truly thank her for her services and adore her hard work and attitude. Ms. Jones is definitely someone I would contact again for legal services no matter the outcome because I know she will fight her hardest until the very end to get a fair verdict for all parties.

I have had several attorneys who represent me in my life. But none like Jolanda Jones. Never has an attorney fought so hard for me. It was like I was one of her family members. With my extensive criminal record Miss Jones went above and beyond to get my case settled with my satisfaction. Not only is she professional but she also knows the law. I thank God for sending her to me and will always be grateful for her care and concern. Today if anyone should ever need an attorney to represent them I will always tell them about Miss Jones.

I am careful with money, and lawyers are expensive. I brought Mr. Perriquey a seemingly complex set of documents for review. Lake took the time to make me understand his informed opinion. Mr. Perriguey took the time to understand my uninformed concerns. While Lake's efforts are painstaking, he is also efficient. In summary, Mr. Perriguey provides value far in excess of his fees.

Lake is truly the best attorney; he's priceless! Her took my case, uncharted legal precedent, and put hours of research and investigation hours into developing an irrefutable case for me. He was ALWAYS available to answer questions and provide guidance regardless of the time of day. Lake doesn't just litigate the issues, he truly is an Advocate for justice. I owe my life to him.

My husband and I found ourselves having to sue a family member over real estate. It was just awful for us. We had never needed an attorney before, so we didn't even know where to start! With a cold call I found Lake. Wow did we get lucky! Lake provided us with guidance and integrity throughout the process which was quite complicated. He explained the lawsuit process clearly to ensure that we understood how it all works. He filed all the documents through the court and corresponded with the opposing attorney in a timely manner. He also made himself available to me when I was feeling especially low, making me feel better. We were able to work out a deal that worked for both us and our relative. We are so grateful to Lake for getting us through this!

Even though he is highly skilled and educated, he makes you feel like you are an equal intellectually, and if there is something you don’t understand, he will explain it to you in a very kind and patient way. Kendall was also a joy to work with! You leave feeling cared for and heard.

I was charged with DWI (1st offense), and for a serious offense one needs strong legal representation. I was fortunate to have Alison Smith represent me. She is highly knowledgeable, with a dose of tenacity and tact. A professional attorney with a strong presence who had a good grasp of my situation while, maintaining her patience as court proceedings are daunting and time consuming. Excellent in communication as she relayed in timely manner activities to fulfill my court obligations/prerequisites/procedures before attending the court. Importantly, I was able to secure my Drivers License from the very get go which could have immobilized me that could have vastly affected my family. My charges were reduced. I would definitely recommend her. Thank you Alison!

I had the privilege of working with this outstanding criminal defense lawyer during an incredibly challenging and complex legal situation. From the moment I met Mr. Adam Dean, it was clear that he possessed an extraordinary set of attributes that truly set him apart. First and foremost, this attorney genuinely cares about his clients. He approached my case with compassion and empathy, recognizing the gravity of the situation and the impact it could have on my life and my family. His non-judgmental attitude created a safe space for me to openly discuss my concerns and fears. Integrity is a cornerstone of his character. Throughout the entire process, he maintained the highest ethical standards, ensuring that every decision and action was driven by a deep commitment to justice. His powerful presence in the courtroom and also during the plea-bargaining process instilled confidence and respect from all parties involved. What impressed me most was his relatability. He had a remarkable ability to connect with me at a personal level, making me feel understood and supported. This skill not only strengthened our attorney-client relationship but also enhanced his effectiveness in representing my case. Approaching my complex case, Mr. Adam Dean demonstrated an unparalleled understanding of the courts and legal processes. His deep knowledge and experience allowed him to navigate the intricacies of the system with precision and strategic thinking. Throughout the entire journey, his dedication and compassion was unwavering. He consistently went above and beyond to ensure that I was well-informed and prepared at every stage. His commitment to my case extended beyond professional obligations, making me feel like I had a true ally fighting on my behalf. I cannot overstate how impressed I am with this attorney's extensive knowledge. He possessed an exceptional grasp of the law and its application to my specific circumstances. His expertise provided reassurance and allowed me to have full confidence in his abilities. In conclusion, if you find yourself in the midst of a challenging legal situation, I wholeheartedly recommend Mr. Adam Dean.

Adam worked for the dismissal of my case for over a year and was extremely responsive every step of the way. My case was an embarrassing one for me and Adam was very professional and non judgmental. He understands that bad things happen to good people and he will fight for you even when the circumstances are unusual. Adam's paralegal Dawn was an amazing help to me, she was highly sympathetic to my position and was able to catch a miscommunication that could have potentially prevented me from completing the requirements necessary for the dismissal. I'm happy to say they were successful in getting my case dismissed. I am thoroughly satisfied with the work these great people did for me and I will turn to them first in the future and highly recommend them to anyone needing legal representation.

I hate writing reviews; I mean, I REALLY HATE writing them. When you find a professional that stands out from the crowd, however, it's only appropriate to give praise as deserved. Steve has been extremely patient throughout my legal journey and continues to provide sound advise and creative solutions for a difficult situation. What's most impressive, however, is his ability to think quickly on his feet, using his wit, skills (the man is absurdly smart and could write a book based on his in-depth knowledge and experience), and appropriately-timed sarcasm to deliver the message in a compelling and easily-understandable way. If you're looking for someone who will sugar-coat things, Steve isn't your guy, though. We've had a lot of tough conversations and haven't always seen the case the same way. He's objective, taking the emotions out of the legal issues, yet still somehow seems to be more empathetic than most. Why do I mention this? If you want good representation, you can't work with someone who always tells you what you want to hear. Instead, you need someone in your camp who will help you through the emotions of the situation but more than that, keep you in the game; Steve is that person.

Steven Klein came highly recommended to me by numerous people when I found myself in a child custody matter with my ex husband. I contacted him right away as my court appearance was in the very near future and he was accomodating and eager to take on my case. Obviously anything involving court and family matters is a very stressful and emotional time. But using Steve and knowing that I was going to be represented by such a confidant and determined attorney eased my stress and worry. He and his firm responded to every email/call or text promptly. I was very happy with the results and I am now using him again for a separate matter. I would highly recommend him to anyone.

Attorney Mr. Arusi Loprinzi of Perkins Law is a bright shining star. He rapidly stopped harassing communication with a cease and desist demand letter and negotiated terms regarding a property buyout. Throughout the process he listened attentively and communicated clearly, efficiently, and promptly. He knew the law, advocated for my best interest, and was direct with his recommendations regarding action steps. He solved two of my major life stressors in just a few weeks, out of court, with a favorable outcome. Anyone can read Mr. Loprinzi’s accolades on his bio/CV demonstrating that he is highly intelligent and experienced, but he is more than that. There is depth to him. There is kindness. Through the words he writes and in his attention to detail, he demonstrates care and compassion. The care is communicated by his timing and dedication. His compassion is communicated with thoughtful reflection of seeing all sides and possible outcomes. As I said to him at the end of the case, the words “thank you” do not adequately communicate the gratitude that I feel for Mr. Loprinzi. There is a special appreciation that forms when one literally restores your peace, safety and resolves a personal crisis. There is no adequate way to convey that depth of gratitude. I hold Mr. Loprinzi in high regard and have tremendous respect for him. You want this attorney in your corner and his boxing gloves are already on, ready to fight for you.

To Whom It May Concern, I am compelled to pen this recommendation to assist you in what could be one of your most pivotal decisions. Several years ago, I found myself entangled in a domestic dispute and made the decision to enlist the services of Attorney Arusi. From the onset, Arusi's approach was remarkably personal. He extended his ear to truly listen and empathized with my situation, making me feel more like a friend than a client during our initial meeting. His transparency and insight into the intricacies of the legal system were not only enlightening but also grounded in realism. Attorney Arusi exhibited a tenacious commitment to my case, demonstrating an almost inexhaustible work ethic that made it seem as though he was tirelessly working round-the-clock. His communication was both persistent and timely; I was regularly updated with calls during the early hours of the morning or late at night, reassuring me that my case was receiving the ceaseless vigilance of a special ops team. Ethically unimpeachable, Arusi showed a strategic boldness in his proceedings, unafraid to assertively make his presence felt to ensure that my voice was heard. His advocacy for my rights, particularly as a father, was unwavering. His correspondences were a bastion of truth, displaying a strategic acumen that left no stone unturned. Watching Attorney Arusi in the courtroom was witnessing a master at work – his legal acumen was nothing short of formidable, and I found myself almost in sympathy with the opposition due to his commanding presence and strategy. In the end, Arusi's efforts culminated in a victory for my case, and he was more than prepared to represent me through to the very last gavel strike. Without hesitation, I can assert that Arusi will forever be my initial contact for any legal matters, especially those of a domestic nature. If you seek a legal representative who exudes the precision and dedication of an elite operative, then I implore you to consider Attorney Arusi to champion your cause. Sincerely, Jameson

He was quick to respond to any emails and phone calls and always shot me straight. We ended up successful in court and he made the very difficult and emotional process of divorce so much easier. He gave me confidence to keep fighting for the outcome my children and I needed. He helped me feel safe and like I had someone fighting for my family's needs that genuinely cared about the income. I would whole heartedly recommend him to anyone who needs a compassionate, knowledgeable, personable attorney. He was amazing. I really cannot say enough good about him. Thank you for everything Arusi!

During that process, I was very pleased with how responsive he was to my questions, whether by email or by phone. When I had a case for another family member, I did not give a second thought as to who I was going to consult.

Maurice was able to navigate through the situation and handle the matter professionally, ethically and gave me the reassurance that justice will prevail despite frightening allegations against me. Now, with facts and evidence, the perpetrators are now starting to reveal themselves to the justice system. I’m confident that Maurice can resolve complicated issues.

Jonas helped me through a difficult transition in which I needed to leave a job before my contract ended. He was prompt in his communication and very generous with his input and advice. He made time before and afterwards to discuss further and has remained a dependable lawyer that I can count on when I have questions. I highly recommend Jonas and am grateful for his important services.

Tristan represented me exceptionally in my divorce case. Tristan was honest in all aspects and never just told me what I wanted to hear. He was honest, upfront, fair, very mature and very professional in guiding me through all of my issues and situations throughout the process. Also I felt an immense amount of fair and excellent support from the Skillern law firm team as a whole. Tristan and Matt Skillern both helped me see through the issues that clouded the true and important issues with my case in an utmost respectable, fair, and level headed manner. Tristan is excellent, and on an excellent team.

Reached out to Mr. Longino for assistance for a very, very difficult child support case between two states. After two TX, and two California attorney's, and no end in sight because of the difficulty of my case, Mr. Longino was very knowledgeable in this area and was able to assist and get us closer to the finish line that we had never been in 4 years. As frustrated as I have been going from court in CA, TX, and back to CA, I am now better prepared to fight this battle with the help from Mr. Longino. If I ever need a TX family attorney in the Houston area, I will 100% retain Mr. Longino and will most certainly refer him to my family and friends. I 100% vouch for this attorney. He went over and beyond to help me and my family.

I was living a nightmare for almost four years. I sold my home and the buyers' attorney fell for a scam e-mail, wiring my mortgage payoff to a fraudulent account at my servicing bank. All of the funds were completely withdrawn from the fraudulent account in a few days. I had no idea that any of this happened until the bank deducted a mortgage payment from my account weeks later. After my real estate attorney discovered what happened, the bank was notified of the fraud and told me not to worry, and that they would freeze the account until the situation was rectified. The buyers' attorney refused to take any responsibility, claimed to be a victim, and never notified the buyers that their home was subject to a lien from an unsettled mortgage. The local police and the FBI were notified and investigated and found that the scammers succeeded in getting the funds overseas. Everyone involved in the transaction denied responsibility and then the bank denied saying that they would freeze the account and referred me to collections, destroying my credit and putting my security clearance and livelihood at risk. I hired Tim and PLG to represent me in this matter, and when the bank refused to even discuss what had happed, he filed a civil suit on my behalf. Tim and PLG were relentless in fighting for me and helping me navigate through dealing with my employer as my clearance was in jeopardy. Were it not for Tim, I would have lost my clearance and my job. Unfortunately, there is little recourse for victims of this type of fraud and it is impossible to fight major banks, insurance companies, and attorneys without having the best on your side. I was lucky to have Tim and PLG on my side and I received a favorable outcome. Tim is passionate about what he does, seeking justice for his clients, fighting for "the little guy"! I hope no one ever has to go through what I did, but if you do, you need Parlatore Law Group in your corner!

When the time came for the inevitable custody battle I was so scared, frustrated, and full of emotions but luckily I found Jennifer Goldman. She is strong, kind, and looked out for our best interest. She is smart, experienced, and invaluable to have on your side and has an amazing assistant. Through it all she explained the processes, was honest and didn’t sugar coat anything, she helped me keep focus on the overall goal by looking at the facts and helped me not to give in to overwhelming emotion as this type of case brings out. She successfully handled my case, and words could never express my gratitude to the amazing work she did for us. I would highly recommend Jennifer if you are in need of excellenct representation.

My wife and I retained Ms. Goldman to help us in obtaining guardianship (aka Conservatorship) of our godson. It was a very detailed and unusual case, involving coordination with Juvenile Justice and serving papers to a very unwilling party. Ms. Goldman and staff were thorough in behind the scenes needs and when it came to the trial, she was superb. We happily won permanent guardianship and now have a chance to give our godson the bright future he deserves.

Jen and Kris were recommended to me by some friends and after a brief meeting with them I immediately hired them to handle my divorce. They were very thorough, timely and offered thoughtful advice each step of the process to ensure I understood everything that was happening. Document review was very fast and they were both great about making sure I knew what was standard vs. what was not standard and what my options were throughout. I will definitely recommend them to friends/colleagues in the future.

Publicly I have know shame but there is a child in question and I firmly believe that our Lord put me in the direction of Mrs. Hutton for a reason. She was straight forward about it but at the same time listened to my concern and was willing to go above and beyond. I feel she was honest and caring. She doesn't seem focused on the financial side of things but more so the care and building her clients up the right way. I am not in a position at the moment to swing this hammer but as soon as my ducks are in a row this amazing attorney is who I will be choosing. Sometimes our prayers our answered in ways we never expect even if it takes 12 years. Genesis 12:3 "I will bless those who bless you, and him who dishonors you I will curse, and in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed". What she is capable of doing and will do for many is a blessing and I pray you many blessings so you may continue to help and guide others as it is needed. Ma'am, I am pleased to have met you. I look forward to working with you in the very near future. I did not read reviews on Mrs. Hutton, it felt right. After speaking with her, I know it is right. If you need an attorney and a friend, you are looking in the right pace. She believes in me and I believe in her.

All I have to say is wow....just wow. Obviously, attorneys can be intimidating, but that's their job, right? We hire an attorney to do take care of our stressful situation...and that is indeed what Ms. Hutton did! She clearly went step by step on building up my child custody case these past several years and at first I was frustrated and had no idea why. But then it all started to make sense when she had explained EXACTLY what needed to be done. It's a process. It's a day-by-day basis. It's life. Ms. Hutton and her wonderful staff works extremely hard in taking in our stress to make our lives smoother. 100% kuddos to you all! My family and I are beyond blessed to have a wonderful, caring AND VERY stern attorney who works, lives and breathes our lives to make things happen in the direction that they should. God Bless You Tempie Hutton, Hannah and Ashley for EVERYTHING! Love you ladies! You need an attorney...Tempie Hutton is definitely your gal!!

I had a complicated situation where in i had to get divorce through publication as my husband & i had not been in contact for 5 years & i was out of US for few years. (it was an abusive marriage) I reside in Buffalo & i spoke with several attorneys locally but i did not feel that any of the local attorneys were able able to understand my situation. Some suggested that i locate my husband & each one of them wanted to start by identifying & listing the assets. Unsatisfied, i started looking for attorneys in NY city and I found Ms Brenner through Avvo. During the consultation she was extremely kind & understanding and agreed to take on my case. Ms Brenner helped me get divorce through publication and she / her team took care of everything. All i had to do was provide her with documentation. I am grateful to Ms Brenner for helping me get out of a sticky stressful situation. I would definitely recommend her to anybody in similar situation. Thank you, Ms Brenner.

Lois acted as the mediator in my divorce, and she was absolutely excellent. It was a very difficult time for me personally, but Lois made the process as easy and painless as it could possibly have been. She listened to each of us separately, and made thoughtful and helpful suggestions. She is fair, and seemed to genuinely care about finding a solution that was best for both parties. Lois is perfectly qualified to handle this type of situation, given her background in psychology. She truly understands people, and used this ability to keep my ex-husband and I calm, and smoothly navigate a few tricky situations. I felt very understood by Lois, and think that she not just a top-quality attorney, but also a very decent person. She is responsive, and answered my emails within a couple of minutes every time. Highly rated!

Eric took the worry out of the immigration processfor us. He held our hands and walked us through the entire process. At no point did we feel as though we were on our own. When we were concerned about issues in the news he contacted us and provided accurate information. Under Eric all our stress and Anxiety vanished. The day of our interview we had all the paperwork he suggested and though we were nervous, it went smoothly. I am sure it wa due to following thw guidelines presented and providing a truthful statements and information to USCIS.

Based on my experience with Ms Proffitt and her team, I’m convinced that the negative reviews must be other side who got beat or someone who thought this team should work for free. I always received communication, Ms Proffitt kicked my ex’s butt (he refers clients to her now), she discounted or didn’t charge for work she completed, and her entire team is top notch. She’s smart, kind, and knows the law. I loved how the judges and other lawyers respected her. She’s the BEST!!

IF YOUR FAMILY AND HARD EARNED MONEY MEANS ANYTHING TO YOU ,PKEASE FIND ANYONE ELSE!I posted 5 stats to make sure this was seen at top and not bottom. Do not do buisness with attorney or her office. She will not properly represent you, know the facts of your case , fight for you, communicate via any form,remember anything you've told her, and WILL WORK WITH THE OPPOSING PARTY. She is not worth the cost, every other attorney speaks badly of her, and they are right. She will break every law of client confidentiality! HER BEAUTY MATCHES HER ATTITUDE!

I hired Ms Proffitt in the middle of this pandemic. She explained to me that the courts were operating under very different rules and timeframes, but that she would do everything in her power to help my children and me through an abusive and financially draining situation. Her and her staff were always responsive. I followed their direction to send messages through their office portal (MyCase) and I never had difficulties gets answers. I have read some of the negative reviews and this was simply not my experience. Her entire staff is helpful beyond measure. Ms Proffitt has compassion for her clients. She truly loves her job. Additionally, she was very generous with her time. I know she could have charged me much more than she did. I highly recommend this attorney.

What a Family Law Lawyer Can Do for You

A family law lawyer provides legal services related to family relationships, including marriage, divorce, child custody, and adoption. Family lawyers help clients navigate emotionally charged legal issues, providing guidance and representation in disputes that affect spouses, children, and parents. Whether you're going through a divorce, seeking custody of your children, or drafting a prenuptial agreement, a family law lawyer ensures your rights are protected and your interests are represented.

Family law attorneys often handle sensitive matters and offer objective legal advice, helping clients reach fair outcomes either through negotiation, mediation, or litigation.

When Should I Hire a Family Law Lawyer?

Hiring a family law lawyer is beneficial in several situations, especially when legal matters involve close personal relationships. Common reasons to hire a family law lawyer include:

  • Divorce or separation: When ending a marriage, a lawyer can help you navigate issues such as division of assets, spousal support, and child custody arrangements.
  • Child custody and visitation disputes: If you and your co-parent can't agree on custody or visitation, a lawyer can represent your interests and work toward a solution that benefits your children.
  • Child support: Whether you’re seeking child support or defending against a claim, a lawyer can help ensure the appropriate amount is calculated and enforced.
  • Prenuptial or postnuptial agreements: A lawyer can help draft or review agreements that protect your assets in case of divorce.
  • Adoption: Family law lawyers guide you through the legal process of adoption, ensuring that all requirements are met.
  • Domestic violence or restraining orders: If you're a victim of domestic violence or being falsely accused, a lawyer can help you obtain or challenge protective orders.
  • Paternity cases: If there are questions about the paternity of a child, a lawyer can help establish or dispute legal fatherhood.

Hiring a lawyer early can prevent issues from escalating, and they can offer you the best chance of achieving a favorable outcome in emotionally charged situations.

What Does a Family Law Lawyer Do?

A family law lawyer provides a wide range of services depending on your specific legal needs. Their responsibilities may include:

  • Advising on legal rights and options: Helping you understand your legal rights regarding divorce, child custody, support, and other family law issues.
  • Filing legal documents: Drafting and filing petitions, motions, and agreements with the court, such as divorce papers, custody agreements, or support orders.
  • Representing clients in court: Arguing your case in front of a judge if a settlement can’t be reached through negotiation or mediation.
  • Mediation and negotiation: Assisting with alternative dispute resolution methods, such as mediation, to reach agreements on issues like custody, property division, and support without going to trial.
  • Enforcing court orders: Helping you enforce court orders related to child support, alimony, or custody if the other party fails to comply.
  • Drafting prenuptial or postnuptial agreements: Creating agreements that protect your assets in the event of a divorce.
  • Handling adoption proceedings: Ensuring that the legal process of adoption is followed, from filing paperwork to finalizing the adoption in court.

How Are Family Law Lawyers Paid?

Family law lawyers typically charge clients in one of several ways, depending on the complexity of the case and the lawyer’s experience. Common payment arrangements include:

  • Hourly rates: Most family lawyers charge by the hour, with rates varying based on experience and location. Clients are billed for the time spent working on their case, including consultations, court appearances, and document preparation.
  • Flat fees: For more straightforward legal services, such as drafting a prenuptial agreement or handling an uncontested divorce, some lawyers offer flat-fee arrangements.
  • Retainer fees: In cases that are expected to require significant time and attention, such as contentious custody battles, a lawyer may charge a retainer, which is an upfront payment that covers the initial costs of legal services. The lawyer then bills against the retainer as they work on your case.

The exact cost will depend on the complexity of your case and the lawyer’s fee structure, which should be discussed upfront.

How Much Does a Family Law Lawyer Cost?

The cost of hiring a family law lawyer varies based on factors such as the lawyer's experience, the location, and the complexity of your case. Here are some general cost guidelines:

  • Hourly rates: Family law lawyers typically charge between $150 and $500 per hour, depending on their experience and the complexity of the case.
  • Flat fees: For simpler cases, such as drafting a prenuptial agreement or handling an uncontested divorce, fees may range from $1,000 to $5,000.
  • Retainers: For more complex matters, such as contested divorces or custody battles, lawyers may charge a retainer ranging from $2,500 to $10,000 or more. The lawyer will bill against the retainer for the work they do on your case.
  • Additional costs: You may also be responsible for additional costs, such as filing fees, mediation fees, or expert witness fees.

Always ask for a clear breakdown of the lawyer’s fees and any additional expenses during your consultation.

Top Questions to Ask a Family Law Lawyer

Before hiring a family law lawyer, it's important to ask questions to ensure they're the right fit for your case. Here are key questions to ask during your consultation:

  1. What experience do you have with family law cases like mine?
    Make sure the lawyer has experience handling cases similar to yours, whether it's a contested divorce, child custody dispute, or adoption.
  2. How will you charge for your services?
    Clarify whether the lawyer charges by the hour, a flat fee, or requires a retainer. Ask for an estimate of the total costs involved.
  3. What are the possible outcomes of my case?
    An experienced lawyer should be able to give you a general idea of what to expect based on the facts of your case.
  4. What is your approach to resolving disputes?
    Ask whether the lawyer tends to favor negotiation and mediation or whether they prefer to take cases to court. This can help you determine if their style matches your goals.
  5. How long do you expect my case to take?
    While it’s difficult to predict, the lawyer should give you an estimate based on similar cases.
  6. Who will be handling my case?
    In larger firms, junior attorneys or paralegals may do much of the work, so make sure you understand who will be your main point of contact.

How to Check the Credibility of a Family Law Lawyer

To ensure you're hiring a reputable family law lawyer, follow these steps to verify their credentials and reputation:

  • Check state bar association records: Verify that the lawyer is licensed to practice in your state and is in good standing with no disciplinary actions.
  • Read client reviews and testimonials: Look for reviews on websites like Avvo, Google, or Martindale-Hubbell. Previous clients can give you insight into the lawyer’s professionalism and success in family law cases.
  • Request references: Ask the lawyer for references from past clients who can speak to their experience with the lawyer.
  • Review their website or professional profile: Look at the lawyer’s background, case history, and areas of focus to ensure they have substantial experience in family law.
  • Look for professional memberships: Membership in reputable organizations, such as the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers (AAML), can indicate a lawyer's expertise and dedication to family law.

What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?

To get the most out of your first consultation with a family law lawyer, it’s important to come prepared. Here’s what you should bring:

  • Relevant documents: Bring any documents related to your case, such as marriage certificates, prenuptial agreements, financial records, custody agreements, or court orders.
  • List of assets and debts: For divorce cases, prepare a detailed list of all assets (e.g., homes, bank accounts, retirement funds) and debts (e.g., mortgages, loans, credit card balances).
  • Details of the family issue: Provide a written summary of the situation, including key dates and facts related to your divorce, custody dispute, or support issue.
  • Questions for the lawyer: Write down any questions you have about the legal process, costs, and potential outcomes.
  • Your goals: Be prepared to discuss your objectives, such as custody arrangements, property division, or spousal support, so the lawyer understands your priorities.

Being organized and clear about your situation will help the lawyer evaluate your case more effectively and offer the best advice for moving forward.
