My experience with The Law Offices of Isabel Castillo changed my family’s life. Thanks to her and her team my husband is finally a permanent resident. Isabel was kind, courteous, and made me feel confident that my husband’s case would one day come to a close and it did. I cannot thank her enough for helping us make our dream a reality. If you are looking for an experienced attorney to handle your immigration needs, Isabel is the lawyer for you.

Isabel put together a comprehensive Green Card application for me. Her approach was extremely detailed. When USCIS requested additional information, she promptly responded. As a result of her representation, I was awarded my GC. I plan to hire Isabel again when it is time for me to apply for citizenship.

We consulted with Matt as we were going through a case with child services. He was extremely helpful to put our minds at ease and let us know he would take care of us. He was always available to speak or text at any hours of the day and responded extremely quickly. I would highly recommend using Matt.

Chris has been our Attorney since 2002, for various issues. Some were very challenging cases and most recently about a land dispute. He did everything he could to save us money and was very wise of how to handle each situation. We believe he is very honest…and works hard to win the case. He definitely knows his stuff. He’s the man to use as a really great Attorney.
And his paralegal, Starla, is very helpful and great at her job, too!
We highly recommend Chris Allen and this Lawfirm .

I hired Farrish Johnson to represent me in a custody case. Andy and his staff took care of everything for me and were very compassionate on everything that was happening. I have had quite a few attorneys in my days but Farrish Johnson went above and beyond my expectations. I am very happy with the results of our case and excited to see my kid again. If you are in the market for a top notch attorney look no further Farrish Johnson Law has got you covered.

From the very initial contact I had with Andy I felt very comfortable and at ease having him represent me in my divorce. Andy spent a great deal of time, listening and understanding my situation and was extremely diligent in every aspect of the divorce. He was not only focused, but also very compassionate to my situation and needs and always maintained an open line of communication between he and I. The divorce took over a year to finalize simply due to stall tactics from the opposing council, I would communicate with Andy expressing my concerns and nervousness. Andy would always respond with a reassuring “I’ve got you” and he always did have my back. His professionalism and understanding As well as his compassion are unsurpassed. I was even fortunate enough to witness a little bit of a “pitbull“ show up.
Andy again, I cannot thank you enough for representing me and for all of the in-depth and extreme work that you did. Thank you for “having my back“ I would quickly and honestly refer you to anyone who would ask for legal assistance.

David was referred to us by our real estate agent and we understand why! He is meticulous and thorough in both his work and explanations, and is especially patient with first-time home buyers. He always presented a range of options when discussing problems and solutions and is committed to getting everything right and the way the homebuyer wants. Moreover, he's just a friendly guy who explains things well and not in legal jargon. I would highly recommend him and will be happy to work with him in the future.

Karim El-Ghazzawy is not just a lawyer; he is a calming force in what can often be a tumultuous legal process. Having utilized his services on two occasions, I can confidently attest to his unique blend of wisdom, empathy, and strategic acumen. What sets him apart is his ability to see beyond immediate victories, prioritizing long-term solutions that benefit all parties involved, especially the children.
Karim's approach is refreshingly rational and thoughtful. Instead of escalating conflicts, he guides with a steady hand, offering advice that is both wise and fatherly. He emphasizes the importance of decency and integrity, reminding clients that ethical conduct ultimately prevails. His understanding of psychology and personality dynamics enables him to mediate effectively, devising strategies that are not only timely but also considerate of each individual's circumstances.
Beyond his legal expertise, Karim demonstrates genuine care for his clients. He takes the time to understand their personal situations, which allows him to tailor his approach for optimal outcomes. This personalized attention not only expedites the legal process but also ensures that clients feel supported throughout.
In the Minneapolis legal community, Karim El-Ghazzawy is held in high regard for his professionalism and competence. His reputation among judges underscores his credibility and respectability, further enhancing his effectiveness in achieving favorable results.
Karim's impact extends beyond the courtroom; his clients, including myself, have benefited significantly from his counsel. He simplifies complex legal issues, ensuring clarity and empowerment for his clients. Many friends I have referred to him echo my sentiments, praising his kindness, gentleness, and unparalleled expertise.
For anyone navigating divorce proceedings or family law matters in Minneapolis, Karim El-Ghazzawy is unequivocally the best choice. His track record of success speaks volumes, and his ability to secure favorable outcomes, even in challenging circumstances, is unmatched. Choosing Karim means not just securing legal representation, but also gaining a trusted advisor who is committed to your well-being and the best interests of your family.
Thank you so much Karim!

I found Karim through an acquaintance of a family member. I can’t write enough good things about Karim and his team here. My priorities were securing a future with my infant son, and I am so happy with how everything was handled! Not only was Karim very professional and responsive throughout the entire process, but offered many bits of priceless guidance and wisdom. I’ll remember and take to heart the things I’ve learned from Karim for the rest of my life.
I can’t recommend Karim and his team enough to anyone looking for a divorce attorney!

I hired Karim for my divorce, and it was the best decision I have ever made. He was so kind throughout the process and didn't make me feel dumb if I didn't know certain things I thought I should know at this point in my life (finances, things about living/ budgeting on my own). He was so responsive and made sure every issue was addressed in order to protect myself and my future. I would highly recommend Karim and his team to anyone going through a divorce.

I cannot express enough gratitude for the outstanding legal support and representation provided by Susan and her remarkable team throughout my journey following a car accident. From the very beginning they demonstrated unparalleled professionalism, expertise, and genuine care.
From the initial consultation, Susan exhibited a deep understanding of my situation, listening attentively to my concerns and provided clear guidance on the legal process ahead. Her compassion and reassurance alleviated my worries, instilling confidence in her ability to navigate the complexities of my case.
Susan demonstrated exceptional negotiation skills during settlement discussions, advocating fiercely for my best interests while maintaining open lines of communication with me every step of the way. Her transparency and commitment to keeping me informed empowered me to make well-informed decisions, fostering a sense of trust and partnership that was truly invaluable.
Beyond their legal expertise, Susan and her team showed genuine compassion and empathy, recognizing the emotional toll the accident had taken on me. Their unwavering support and compassionate guidance provided me with comfort and reassurance during a challenging time in my life.

Jennifer was recommended to me by the mediation lawyer I'd worked with previously.

I have worked with her twice now and would definitely do so again if the need arose.

Jennifer was outstanding! She was very helpful and prompt in thoroughly responding to questions and concerns. My experience was excellent, and I would recommend her services.

Heidi Noll and Amy Koren were both incredible. I wouldn’t even think about hiring another lawyer or another team. If you have a custody matter, this is who you wanna use.
Timely correspondence, knowledge of family law, especially in custody matters, and actual care of the situation were all an 11 out of 10. They’re familiar with the area and all of the players involved. I was extremely impressed and incredibly grateful that Heidi and Amy were able to work on my case. They explained everything to me, answered all of my questions and were able to successfully get me the custody rights I deserved, and my children and I needed. I couldn’t speak any more highly about both of them.

Attorney Noll and her team represented me for both my custody agreement and subsequent child support filing. When I say her and her team are the absolute best, I mean it! I had partial custoday of my childern and she helped me get 50/50 custoday when my kids mother was being extremely difficult. Heidi answered all my questions and helped me navigate what all I needed to do. After successful completion of the custody agreement she suggested I file support against my ex. I agreed and was astonished at how much I was owed in the 50/50 agreement. I never would have imagined the outcome but Heidi ran circles around my ex's lawyer and fought for every dollar during the conference. I would highly recommend her to anyone who needs council in these matters!!!!!

Attorney Noll is incredibly professional and knowledgeable. In the worst time of my life I never felt more confident that I made the right choice by hiring her to represent me in divorce and custody. She and her associate, Amy Koren, are very punctual, timely, responsible, and communicative. I would strongly recommend their services for anyone who finds themselves in need of legal guidance and representation.

Rob is fantastic. He helped me tremendously with a case many years ago, and luckily I haven’t needed his expertise since then, lol. Recently I did have an issue that needed to be resolved immediately, I had no time to waste. I texted Rob that I needed help and he was able to call me at 9am before his busy day in court that consisted of many cases that were not mine. He was able to give me the advice that I needed and from there I was able to move forward and clear everything up for myself. Thanks for the wise words Rob.

Today was a day I was both dreading, but also looking forward to as I had to appear for a preliminary hearing regarding an accidental discharge of a firearm that resulted in the projectile passing through the wall of my dwelling and into the adjacent one.
I say dreading because of the implications it would have on both my life and career. Conversely I was looking forward to it because I had attorney Alan Ross in my corner defending me.
I cannot say enough about how professional Alan was in how he presented himself and my case during the hearing, and the amount of time and effort that he took to prepare for it. In the end, his thorough research of case law, legal statutes, and presiding opinion, and presentation of such before the district justice was impressive. He was prepared for, and countered the opposing arguments of the district attorney and ended up swaying the judge in our favor to dismiss the case on all counts.
I cannot thank Alan enough for all the hard work, and compassion he showed towards both my case and myself, prior to and including today’s hearing . While I hope to never have to retain his services again, should the need arise he will always be the one I look to engage on my behalf, and if anyone is out there reading this because they are seeking outstanding service and representation, I highly encourage you to call him.

I am beyond grateful for the incredible support I received from Robert Tsai, a Board Certified Family Law Attorney referred to me by Jamie. To say he's amazing is an understatement; he's been an absolute blessing during one of the toughest periods in my life.
Robert's responsiveness, thoroughness, and genuine care have been nothing short of extraordinary. In a world where I've felt unheard and struggled for real assistance, Robert stood out. He took the time to ask meaningful questions, truly understanding my situation and concerns. His responses were not just legal jargon; they were genuine, heartfelt, and filled with a compassion that's rare to find in the legal realm.
I've navigated through numerous lawyers, desperately seeking help, but Robert's authenticity set him apart. He didn't give me a runaround or sugarcoat things. Instead, he provided concrete, real-world solutions, ensuring that I felt seen, heard, and supported.
This review will never be enough to express the depth of my gratitude. Robert not only guided me legally but also offered a compassionate hand that made a world of difference for me and my family. I genuinely hope that life showers him with all the success and blessings he deserves for being the remarkable and compassionate professional that he is. Thank you, Robert, for being a true guardian angel during a challenging chapter of my life.

Robert is truly an exceptional attorney. When I needed his services, I believe I reached out to him on a Friday. He went out of his way to provide a consultation over the weekend even when he should be spending time with family. I immediately knew I was in good hands and did not hesitate to retain Robert for my divorce case. Throughout this truly uncomfortable situation, each contact with Robert reminded me that I had made a good choice. We made out very well with my settlement and I am ear to ear with smiles knowing that the choice to work with Robert was the right one. I’ve since referred Robert several times and will continue to refer him to anyone I know who needs the right attorney. Highly recommended. Thank you, Robert. You were a life saver.

Chris Harding was the third attorney I considered for what I knew would be a very difficult and complicated divorce. The others didn’t come close, but I could tell very quickly Chris was intelligent, professional, had a great deal of expertise in family law, had integrity and was not afraid to fight for what was right. He was the right attorney for the job. Then I saw all the 5 star reviews and knew I had made the right choice. Chris was on top of every surprise, every twist and turn until a favorable outcome for me was achieved much faster than expected. The 5 star reviews are real. I found them all to be true. If you are searching for a great attorney for any aspect of Family Law, you need Chris Harding. He is dependable and communicative as well as caring and on top of his game. I highly, highly recommend him.

I cannot recommend Chris Harding highly enough for his exceptional representation in my Family Court matter. Chris represented me in a complex case involving my two teenage children, and thanks to his expertise, dedication, and strategic approach, the outcome was favorable for both me and my children.
From our initial consultation, Chris demonstrated a deep understanding of family law and the unique challenges involved in cases with teenagers. He listened attentively to my concerns, provided clear and insightful advice, and was always available to answer my questions throughout the process. His professionalism and compassion made a very stressful situation much more manageable.
In court, Chris was incredibly prepared and presented my case with precision and confidence. His ability to navigate the legal system, combined with his persuasive advocacy, was instrumental in achieving a positive result. My children and I are profoundly grateful for his hard work and dedication.
If you are looking for a knowledgeable, compassionate, and highly effective family law attorney, Chris Harding is the one you need. His commitment to his clients and his outstanding legal skills truly set him apart.

Kristine is hands down the best attorney I've worked with. Unlike other lawyers I've dealt with, Kristine really cares. She's not just doing a job; she puts her heart into it, and it shows. It's like she's tackling the case as if it were her own problem, paying attention to every little detail and nailing the argument.
What really sets Kristine apart is how she combines her sharp mind with genuine kindness. She's super smart and on top of things, but also really takes the time to understand and accommodate your needs. It’s not every day you come across an attorney who actually takes a special interest in your case like it's something personal to them.
Kristine's attention to detail was exemplary. She meticulously crafted the case, ensuring every aspect was thoroughly considered and eloquently presented. This level of dedication was not just limited to the legal strategy but extended to her interactions with me. Kristine's intelligence and caring nature shone through as she guided me through every step, accommodating my needs and paying special attention to the nuances of my situation.
Her ability to connect on a human level, paired with her professional expertise, made my legal journey less daunting. It’s really rare to find an attorney who combines such personal warmth with professional competence. Kristine’s work not only yielded positive outcomes but also provided a sense of comfort and trust during the process.
If you need someone who's not just all about the law but also about the people, Kristine's your go-to. she stands out as the best, a true gem in the legal profession. I'd recommend her in a heartbeat. She's more than just a lawyer; she's a real person who gets it, and that made all the difference for me.

Her dedication to you will be way beyond and above expectation. I was absolutely please and satisfied with my case results with her. No one I would of wanted on my side!

Michael was my second attorney with a custody case my case lasted almost 2 years and was probably one of the worst experiences of my life. I did a lot of research to look for an attorney when my current one was not representing me And my daughter, the way I sold an attorney should. I consulted with Michael after reading reviews and hired him after the initial consultation. I will say Michael is very straightforward. He will tell you exactly how it is with no sugarcoating. He will probably make you mad because he pissed me off many many times but it was because he knows what he is talking about and he either, wanted to prepare me for what was coming or he knew the direction that I was going to was going to lead to a fail in my case. I was facing pretty much my daughters dad getting 50-50 custody with me and everything split down the middle that was looking at the best outcome and to me and my daughter that would be devastating. My daughters, dad and his attorney made me look like a monster, a dramatic, crazy monster. It was a horrible two years of him, badgering me, and trying to gaslight me in word, twisting and threats but somehow I look like the reasonable one and really thought that it was a possibility I could lose custody of my daughter ended up going to a trial that lasted a day and a half and end up I got full custody. I got full medical he does have visitations not 50% but not the one day week every other weekend. I am very happy with the outcome, my daughter‘s dad and his attorney whole case was how horrible , I am or Michael focused his whole case on what was best for my daughter what would be the best for her? Michael put my daughters interest, happiness, well-being and we won the case. I am very great full for Micheal and his staff for not only helping me through this difficult time and working hard to get me a good outcome, but for putting up with me for two years, I am not the easiest person to deal with I can be very dramatic, especially when it comes to my child. I really wouldn’t say that I had a downside to my experience with Michael and his team except maybe sometimes his staff would not respond to emails or phone calls as quickly as I would have liked them too, but I’m not the only client I Know that. For the trial, I feel like Michael prepared me very well. I thought he argued his case extremely well and the outcome shows that so if you were looking for custody divorce, any kind of family law I highly recommend Michael

Took my dissolution by the horns and made a process that I thought was going to take months to even get into the courts weeks.

I can’t say enough good things about Adam Banner. He helped our family at an incredible time of need. He always answered my calls/emails. He was a listening ear when I needed one, gave good council when I asked for it, and was with me every step of the way. He knew my case in and out and got a dismissal for me and my family. He will work harder than any attorney out there. I’m sure there are a lot of good ones, but Adam has separated himself from them, in my opinion. He was upfront about the costs involved and delivered the best result we could have asked for. If you find yourself in need of an attorney, you came to the right place. Adam Banner can be trusted.

NOT GUILTY were the words I heard after jury deliberation! Adam is seasoned, sharp, quick, witty, and extremely knowledgeable! He strategically sliced and diced both the state investigating agency and the state prosecution team, while simultaneously dismantling the whole narrative that resulted in the charge against me. His words resonated with the jury! My family and I will be forever grateful for the hard work and dedication he put into my case. He wasn’t just a typical defense attorney, Adam truly cares about the jury seeing the truth and I am a free man today because of it. Thank you Adam!

Ms. Mukesh is an outstanding attorney. She handled my divorce case and did a great job. She has a small practice and because of that she is able to provide personal attention to all the details of the case. She is very knowledgeable and explains the ins and outs of the case. She always looks for the best interest of her client and tries her best to bring the case to an expeditious and successful closure instead of dragging it along.
She is very flexible with her schedule and always does her best to make herself available to meet in person and returns phone calls/emails in a very timely manner.

My attorney Shavina Mukesh was very patient and kind. She went out of her way in trying to settle my divorce out of court in which she was successful. Which saved me money and time and most importantly I was mentally relieved. My divorce process was mentally draining but Mrs. Mukesh was always there to hear me out. I was very pleased with her services and would recommend anyone going through a similar experience to hire her as your attorney. She will make the process as smooth as possible.

My experience with Mary Gannaway was very positive. Mary was able to fight for the schedule I needed so that I could spend more quality time with my kids. Mary was always very prompt to provide updates through email and if I was confused about any information that was provided was always willing to schedule a call so that I could ask questions. I am very happy with how my case ended.

Had the best experience and results with her.
She is very straight forward on how the out come will be, super professional and experience on her field, I have all ready recommended to friends and family, take in consideration what is your case, she will do her best to help you out. I went with with her gave all my documentation she ask for and everything worked perfectly, don't blame it on her because your case did not went thru, maybe you where not fully honest with her on things you have provide her and your legal situation. also once you sent the documents sometimes USCIS losses your information, I went to my portal to verify my status case and they where asking me for information I had all ready gave Sakina, but I told her my concern she answer fast and clear it right away, sent again my information and everything was correct. take in consideration that USIS will keep asking documents you have sent all ready all the time, so also be aware on your portal that you could see everything online, and ask any questions and concerns to Sakina, she will help you out in your whole process A to Z. I vale the time and effort she did so overall I highly recommend her with no hesitation.

I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better lawyer. John went above and beyond for every single step. He’s extremely kind and caring. He made sure I knew everything that was going on and explained anything I didn’t understand. He goes out of his way for his clients. Every time I met with John he always managed to calm my nerves.

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:
-
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. -
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. -
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. -
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. -
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. -
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.
