I knew I wanted to hire Katie the moment I met her. She wasn't taking cases in my jurisdiction but she made an exception for me after I convinced her to take my case. She felt compassion for me and I am eternally grateful that she represented me. Not only did I get everything I asked for, but she felt more like a friend than an attorney throughout one of the most trying times in my life. May God bless you and your family, Katie!

I am incredibly grateful for the assistance Mr. Godon provided to my son regarding his speeding ticket. From our initial consultation to the final resolution, Mr. Gordon was professional, knowledgeable, and responsive. They clearly explained the legal process and the available options, ensuring my son understood everything. He diligently worked to achieve a favorable outcome, minimizing the impact of the ticket. I highly recommend Mr. Gordon to anyone seeking competent and reliable legal representation for traffic violations.

I first met with Mr. Gordon in 2015. He was quick to return my calls, spoke to me with such ease and struck me as a very kind and approachable person. His staff was efficient and always courteous. I hired him and he took care of things just as he said he would and for the amount he quoted me. A couple years later I reached out to him regarding a misdemeanor issue with my son, he not only called me back after I texted him, he counseled me at no charge. He's like an Angel on my shoulder.

Contentious divorce and custody battles don't just affect the immediate family; they ripple out, impacting extended families and friends. As someone who loves and supports a family member going through such a difficult time, I experienced firsthand the emotional toll these situations can take. We often become the ones helping carry the burdens created by the breakdown of a family.
As the brother of a Soulsby Law client, I feel compelled to leave this review—not only to express my gratitude for the tremendous work they did on my brother’s case but also to encourage others to refer their loved ones to the Soulsby Law Firm if they're facing similar challenges.
From the very beginning, the experience with Soulsby Law was exceptional. My brother had reached out to several attorneys before contacting Soulsby, but he knew immediately that this was the right fit. Stephanie, the front desk receptionist, was kind, patient, and professional. She made him feel at ease and promptly set up his meeting with Kate, which was the start of a life-changing process.
I’ll never forget the excitement in my brother’s voice after his first meeting with Kate. He told me, “I’ve found the attorney I need.” Kate was attentive, confident, and compassionate—not just during that initial meeting, but throughout the entire process. Her unwavering dedication and expertise ensured that my brother achieved the results he needed: more time with his children and a say in their medical care.
Of course, great outcomes are the result of teamwork, and Kate’s team is phenomenal. Amy was in constant contact with my brother, keeping him updated on developments and breaking down complex legal issues in a way that was easy to understand. Her calm demeanor was a source of reassurance during what could have been a storm of uncertainty.
And then there’s June, whom my brother affectionately referred to as “Kate’s Filing Cabinet.” Her ability to organize, recall, and present relevant information during court preparations and proceedings was nothing short of legendary.
Having been involved in combat sports my whole life, I’ve learned the importance of preparation. Walking onto the mat unprepared leaves you anxious and vulnerable, but stepping up with the confidence of thorough training changes everything. Thanks to Kate and her team, my brother walked into the courtroom prepared and confident, knowing he was in good hands.
I’m deeply grateful to the Soulsby Law Firm for helping my brother gain more time with his children. Their work has had a profound impact on all of us—because of them, I now get to see my niece and nephew more often. For anyone navigating the challenges of divorce or custody, I can’t recommend Soulsby Law highly enough.
I hope they have the day they deserve...which would be a day full of happiness!

Phillip has been OUTSTANDING! I never expected such great service and attentiveness from an attorney.
His average response time was less than 30 minutes, INCLUDING after hours texts.
He would even respond back to me after hours when I specifically wrote to him, telling him not to worry about answering my questions until the next business day.
The circumstances were life altering, and he was extremely compassionate, understanding, and CARING.
Thanks Philip, and crew for helping me through this horrible life changing event.
I hope I don't need you again, but if I do, there's no one else that i would consider calling upon.

Laura is an excellent attorney. I knew the ladies there would take care of me from the moment I entered the office. They made my daughter and me feel very comfortable. I got to speak with Laura who was very professional, kind and patient she understood what I was dealing with emotionally and financially. I went in with no prior knowledge. Laura helped by educating me of my options, she explained everything perfectly. I felt confident in myself and the next steps to take. I would highly recommend her to anyone that is dealing with family law.

I turned to the law office of Bryan Fagan to represent me ,they were recommended to me by a friend. With their help, I was able to get my charges dropped without even going to trial. It was their professionalism and compassion that impressed me most.Where other lawyers would speak over me, or make me feel that their time was a precious commodity,they took the time to listen to me, to make me feel heard. I will absolutely be returning to Law office of Bryan Fagan if I ever find myself in need of legal representation.

The first time I talked to Mark, I felt completely educated about the whole process. He was clear about all the steps and details. I’ve talked to many lawyers and their conversations were always leaving me with a little doubt about the cost and the process, etc... With Mark from A to Z it’s been right and expected. Thank you sir Thompson for your proactivity, your transparency and honesty. I recommend him 100000%.

Bradley Bellows was a wonderful, informative, and strong handed lawyer during my divorce matters. He was thorough, patient, strategic, and logical which can be hard in matters where emotions are high. Not only was I navigating a divorce case but also a criminal case against my ex husband and with Mr.Bellows advocacy and agency I was able to find a balance for my child’s wellbeing while also respecting my own autonomy in the matter. I will continue to refer him to friends and family alike looking for someone who is trustworthy,
level headed and an advocate for sound minded law. Thank you for everything you did for my family! Forever grateful.

I hired them for an uncontested divorce. Even though this is a "simpler" process, getting a divorce is still stressful.

I had a multi-disciplinary legal matter last year. Although the allegations were without merit I was afraid of the potential consequences for myself and my family. Mr. Parra met with me and was able to calm some of those fears. He immediately went to work on my case and Within days he was getting results. My legal problems were completely resolved in a much shorter time than I expected with the best possible outcome and the price was reasonable. I’ve recommended several clients to Mr. Parra who have received the same care and treatment with similar results. The Parra Law Firm is now the only Law firm I recommend for San Antonio and surrounding areas.

Rachel provided me with support and encouragement through the most difficult time of my life. My divorce was a nightmare & she was there to walk me through it spending the necessary time on the phone or in person that I needed. She gave it to me straight and didn't just tell me what I wanted to hear, she was honest and up front and I appreciated that very much! She looked out for me on the cost side of things & always showed compassion for my situation. In the end, I walked away with a smile because she fought for me & won in areas I wasn't expecting to have favor in. Highly recommended and will definitely always refer back to her in the future should I ever need legal advice again! Thanks Rachel! :)

I highly recommend Rachel Reuter as a family and child custody attorney. After a yearlong nightmare with another attorney and difficult divorce/custody case, I’m so thankful I have Rachel on my team. My past struggles included: enforcement, numerous false CPS allegations, and a lengthy home study. Rachel was able to remedy the situations immediately. She is extremely proactive, takes the initiative, and does her best to ensure that my custody is enforced. She and her team eagerly took on my case and aggressively got my children back in my life. She is on point with her communication and always does her own research. I believe she is very fair with her billing practices. Rachel is competent and provides me with necessary advice for legal decisions. She will be on my case in the future. I’m only disappointed that I hadn’t found her sooner. She looks out for my family’s best interest and I would recommend her to anyone going through divorce and child custody.

I retained Mrs. Reuter after a friend of mine highly recommended her. I must admit at first I was a little skeptical since I had to fire my first attorney after spending $4000 for one day in court. To my surprise that all changed. After only spending ten minutes with Rachel I knew she was the lawyer I needed in my corner. Rachel is a compassionate and highly skilled attorney who is currently assisting me through a very traumatic divorce. My divorce was very complicated due to my ex husband unwilling to be fair in any aspect you can imagine. She is very patient and has not given up on my case, even when I felt like just giving it all up to my ex-husband. Rachel has not only played the attorney role but has also been there when I needed a shoulder to cry on. She reassured my everything would be ok and she had no intentions on letting up on my case despite all that has gone on.
I must also mention Catilin (her paralegal) she is a compliment to Rachel's firm. She is always on top of everything and always makes sure to inform me of what is going on at all times whether it be by e-mail or text. Please, if you are looking for an honest attorney who will fight until the end contact her office. You will not regret it.

Diana and Juan were compassionate, hard-working and knowledgeable. No one wants to dissolve their family, but when you get to that point you need an attorney who can see through the emotional noise that you have and can advise you based on your future goals. WSM was that for me and I’m grateful for their expertise! You won’t regret the choice to come to WSM.

If I could 0 stars and still submit a review, I would. Attorney Diana Davalos is just in it for the money and doesn’t work for her clients as she promises. She seemed very competent & compassionate at the consultation and we felt comfortable paying her large retainer for what promised to be a difficult divorce & custody case because she had us so convinced that she would work hard for positive outcomes. Well that didn’t last long and she dropped the ball on critical tasks, didn’t respond to communications, didn’t provide copies of arrangements she made with opposing counsel and left my niece and her children in a worse situation than when she was hired. We quickly vetted this attorney before hiring her and found positive reviews. However, after frustrated beyond belief and looking into her reputation further, we’ve found other clients who experienced the same unprofessionalism from her. Ms. Davalos is inept and lacks any professional courtesy. Unfortunately our family learned that the hard way.

If I could give 0 stars I would. Absolutely THE problem when it comes to attorneys this day and age.(maybe it’s just with men). If you want a game where you're being strung along and billed forever playing the rollercoaster game with you and your children's life instead of evidence being presented in a costly/timely and empathetic manner THIS IS YOUR GUY. Mr. Bancroft, i just got off the phone with you where you hung up on me stating that I’m threatening you. Get over your ego and realize that your business as a practicing attourney needs realignment. I wrote you about a standing invoice you provided totaling to less than the amount that Ive paid to you months prior with no response. After speaking to your paralegal, then being transferred to your “billing dept.” and speaking to them I was provided with a newer invoice…..with newer charges, where whomever was working before had originally just simply “forgot to send me the invoice”….what a convenient coincidence. After speaking with her, I was transferred to you where I had a conversation with your ego. Well, from the little guy(s) down here Mr. Bancroft, do whats right and fabricating invoices to skip out on paying balances owed on any moneys paid to you for the services that you DID NOT PROVIDE are just not that. Client paid $1750 in retainer fees(half of your 3500 to get the case started) and had to chase said attourney down for enquiries with little to no communications outside of ones that were initiated by me/client, INCLUDING in person conversation with YOU where I unexpectedly paid a visit to your office in August after I could not successfully contact anyone and asked about a status of my case. You did not recall my case by name until we went to your office and you searched my name.(keep in mind, this is three months after contracting). Attourney invoicing per attourney-client portals all state work for balance of $753, with latest payment from client being $631 in October.(this never happened, only payment made was the initial one and didn't make another due to subpar and in my opinion MALPRACTICAL, I'm aware that isn't an official word, service). After a few months of calling and majorly being placed on hold, back and forth’s with promises of returned calls or motions with paralegals, multiples of them and finally being frustrated with the reality of paying an attourney and not being fought for……while fighting a vindictive situation with my children as a GREAT DAD I asked for an explanation stating that if I did not hear anything as ai had been I wanted to discontinue services and be refunded via message inside of the client portal, I THEN was given a response…..but not with accountability, not with a plan of action, not to communicate any valuable evidence or structured plan of action, but to speak downward of me on the “dismal” months of non-payment……….ultimately this attourney demanded I paid him his past due amount, in addition to totals for mediations that hadn't even been had yet to avoid him WITHDRAWING. Needless to say I attended the mediation PRO SE, paid the mediator directly. I’m now on maximum state mandated child support and standard visitation for the children I equally raised because the relationship did not work out with their mother…finally divorced none the less. All of the evidence in the world to fight that good fight never presented, never saw a represented court setting, money just wasted and thank GOD I demanded a standard or it could have been MUCH MUCH worse financially. Contracted with this attourney on 5/24/2024….attourney withdrew as of 11/5/2024, yet they have still attempted to withdraw payment from my bank as of latest, 12/19/2024…….this was my SECOND attourney over a course of what I recall as a 3 year nightmare……I can confidently say, this is whats wrong with the family law system! Will edit with photo documentation when I have time.

I want to personally thank The Schafer Law Firm for their diligent work in my grandmother's eviction case!! Her property management company tried to throw a 93 year old woman out of her own home for making viable and valid complaints, and luckily my friend referred me to him. David Schafer wasted no time getting to work taking care of her and my family’s needs! I was already stressed out as a single mom taking care of this while completing my last semester of college to earn my bachelors degree, and Schafer certainly took this stress off of me! I will always be grateful to The Schafer Law Firm and will utilize his services when needed and will continue to refer to ALL my family and friends!

After meeting and hiring Savannah at the Rebecca Carrillo’s law firm back in September 2018 I am very please and happy with my results. Along with a very respectable team, she was amazing! I never thought I would have to go through a Divorce/ Child support, but Savannah made it as smooth as possible and understanding and fast. Her fast response to communication won me over. She worked with me diligently and never made me feel overwhelmed. The office provided me with packets on what to expect, review and study. Homework was assigned and it was pretty easy since I was an organized person already. I came out with a huge win for my daughter and my home along with certain assets.
Most definitely highly recommend for her outstanding work and dedication to her clients needs and wants.

I can't say enough good things about Bryan Orihel!
Bryan recently represented me in a trespassing case where I was wrongfully arrested, and I’m thrilled to say he got it completely dismissed. From start to finish, Bryan was professional, attentive, and incredibly skilled.
He took the time to truly understand my case and kept me informed every step of the way. His knowledge of the law and attention to detail were beyond impressive. What really stood out to me was how much he genuinely cared about my situation and fought for the best possible outcome.
Thanks to Bryan, a stressful chapter in my life is behind me, and I couldn't be more grateful.
If you’re looking for a lawyer who’s not only great at what they do but also has your back 100%, Bryan Orihel is the one to call. Highly recommend!

I highly recommend this firm, but most importantly, Daphne. Her dedication shows and is the epitome of “Actions speak louder than words.” This was the best investment I’ve ever made. I cannot thank Daphne and Aaron or recommend them enough. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

I have had mixed experiences with my previous attorney, and felt that we were merely being reactive, and that the majority of our interactions with the opposing party were contentious.
She is collaborative, professional, creative, and most importantly ‘proactive’. Despite having such short notice on my hearing, she’s pulling together a comprehensive, long-term plan, and doing an excellent job of keeping me focused, calm, and on track for the bigger picture items to come.
Don’t hesitate because she’s an associate — work with her now, while she’s a rising star! Additionally, I must give additional credit to her legal assistant, Lisa Rodriguez, who is highly experienced and professional. She’ll ask the right questions to help organize your case, and save you money and time.
I will update this post as my case moves forward, but I’d give 6-stars right now if I could.

I had a really good experience with Michelle. My case involved a claim of marriage, protection of my assets and two children. Michelle was able to prove that there was no marriage and I now have full custody of both of my children. She was very thorough and the results were better than expected.

While dealing with my own legal matter, Michelle was the first person I thought to call to help me out. She went above and beyond to get everything drafted and filed before the deadlines. When we had to go to court, Michelle was well prepared and articulate before the judge. I would highly recommend Michelle to anyone looking for an experienced family law attorney.

I had the privilege of having Dr. Baez represent my husband on a parole revocation case. I must say his dedication to his clients is unparalleled. From the moment I sought his counsel, it was evident that he was not just another attorney, but a fierce advocate for justice. He leaves no stone unturned in pursuit of the best possible outcome. We achieved a favorable resolution in our case. I cannot recommend him highly enough to anyone in need of legal representation. If you’re looking for a lawyer who will fight tirelessly for your rights, look no further than Dr. Baez, he is a champion for justice.

Dr. Baez has been an invaluable gift from God! We connected through my family that know him personally from church. Dr. Baez has provided me with a fatherly-guidance since the first day we met. A true mentor with an extensive understanding of Biblical teachings that always appear customized for you specifically. I have been reminded by Dr. Baez what a true Man of God says and does in daily life once again. To say that this man is a stellar lawyer truly does not do him justice. His approach to each case displays a surgical precision like no other! Dr. Baez will forever be in my family prayers. We are truly grateful for this Warrior of God to be a part of our lives! Thank you, Dr. Baez, for everything you have done for me and my family!

I would like to thank you. You are a great lawyer and attorney, and the staff at your office are awesome. I have hired other attorneys in the past to help me with my case but no one stood up for me and rocked like you did. When I walked out of the court room in the past I felt like I lost. My ex she won again and again and again. Bertha ended that and instead of playing defense at court Bertha was on the offense the whole time, and the Judge saw right through my ex’s lies finally.

Mrs. Bradley helped me get reinstated and keep my job. She took the time to actually listen to me and "saw outside the box" because I spoke to many lawyers and no one was able to help me. Mrs. Bradley understood what I was fighting for. She is very knowledgeable and is interested in fighting for justice!

I cannot say enough good things about Clepper Harrison & Duffy PLLC. From start to finish, I experienced the upmost professionalism and compassion. I ended every interaction with confidence and certainty. At the end of every call, Chanda and I both had clear expectations on what to do next--I had my tasks, she had hers, and every time we followed up, we were on the same page. She and her team are highly prepared, proficient, prompt, and consistent. I appreciated that the billing information was explained so well that I never felt like I had to wonder how much things were going to cost. I was billed on the 1st and the 15th of every month, and I personally loved that consistency. Although I have never worked with attorneys before, my personal opinion was that their fees were extremely fair and honest. Each bill had a running record of every item they completed, with times, dates, and explanations. I loved their practicality of providing phone calls and zoom calls, rather than meeting in person. My whole divorce was handled over phone calls/zooms and I never had to step foot into a court room. Although everyone's experience is different, I was able to complete an amicable, uncontested divorce that was finalized in just over 60 days. Without the help of Chanda and her team, there is no way I would have been able to do this on my own. I was very pleased with my outcome, which is astounding that I am even writing this sentence, because I am a person who never thought divorce was an option. If you're reading this and feel as though you have gotten to the point where divorce is now your only option, know that you will be fully taken care of by Clepper Harrison & Duffy PLLC.

James Reeves is an excellent attorney. He represented me during my one and only divorce; he worked hard and continued to stop me from offering up the "farm". Everything worked out as expected, though, I far exceeded with the final outcome with regard to vehicles, home and currency. I highly recommend defendants obtain James' legal service, he is an extremely competent, and experienced trial Lawyer. Did I say he is also an honest man; in closing, I would say James Reeves can handle any type of case, I wouldn't expect any problems securing his service for a Murder case or DWI and expect to come out on top everytime.

What a Child Support Lawyer Can Do for You
A child support lawyer specializes in legal issues related to the financial support that one parent provides to another for the upbringing of their children. These lawyers assist with establishing, enforcing, and modifying child support orders, ensuring that the financial needs of the child are met, including housing, food, healthcare, education, and other essentials. A child support lawyer can also represent parents in disputes over the amount of support, ensure fair calculations based on income, and handle legal proceedings if one parent fails to meet their obligations.
Whether you're seeking to establish child support, modify an existing order, or enforce payments, a child support lawyer can help you navigate the legal system and protect your rights and the well-being of your child.
When Should I Hire a Child Support Lawyer?
You should consider hiring a child support lawyer when you need assistance with any of the following child support matters:
- Establishing child support: If you are going through a divorce or separation and need to establish a child support order, a lawyer can help ensure that the support amount is fair and accurately calculated.
- Modifying child support orders: If there has been a significant change in circumstances, such as a job loss, income change, or a child's financial needs, a lawyer can help you request a modification to the existing child support order.
- Enforcing child support payments: If the other parent has failed to make court-ordered child support payments, a lawyer can help enforce the order through legal means such as wage garnishment, property liens, or even legal action.
- Disputing child support calculations: If you believe the child support amount has been incorrectly calculated based on your income or expenses, a lawyer can help you challenge the calculation and seek a fair adjustment.
- Paternity disputes: If paternity needs to be established before child support can be ordered, a lawyer can assist with DNA testing and legal proceedings.
- Interstate child support cases: If the parents live in different states, navigating child support laws can be complex. A lawyer can help ensure the proper jurisdiction is established and that child support is enforced across state lines.
- Child support during custody disputes: If child custody and child support are being determined simultaneously, a lawyer can help ensure that both issues are resolved fairly and in the best interest of the child.
Hiring a lawyer early can help ensure that your child support case is handled effectively and that your child's financial needs are met.
What Does a Child Support Lawyer Do?
A child support lawyer provides a variety of legal services to help parents secure, modify, and enforce child support arrangements. Their responsibilities often include:
- Filing for child support: A lawyer can help you initiate the legal process to obtain a child support order, ensuring that all necessary documentation is submitted and deadlines are met.
- Calculating child support: A lawyer can help ensure that child support is calculated fairly based on both parents' incomes, the needs of the child, and other factors such as healthcare and education costs.
- Negotiating child support agreements: If both parents are willing to negotiate, a lawyer can help facilitate an agreement on child support outside of court, which can then be approved by a judge.
- Representing you in court: If negotiations fail or the other parent contests the child support amount, a lawyer will represent you in family court, presenting evidence and making legal arguments to support your case.
- Modifying support orders: A lawyer can help you file a request for modification if circumstances change, such as a loss of income or an increase in the child’s financial needs.
- Enforcing child support: If the other parent is not making court-ordered payments, a lawyer can take legal steps to enforce the order through wage garnishment, property liens, or other measures.
- Handling complex cases: In cases involving high incomes, self-employment, or complicated financial situations, a lawyer can help ensure that all relevant factors are considered in determining child support.
How Are Child Support Lawyers Paid?
Child support lawyers typically charge for their services based on the complexity of the case and the type of legal work required. Common payment methods include:
- Hourly rate: Most child support lawyers charge by the hour, with rates ranging from $150 to $500 or more, depending on the lawyer’s experience and location. The total cost will depend on how much time the lawyer spends on your case, including preparation, negotiations, and court appearances.
- Flat fee: For more straightforward cases, such as uncontested child support agreements or basic modifications, some lawyers may offer a flat fee that covers all services related to the case.
- Retainer: Many lawyers require a retainer, which is an upfront payment that is billed against as the lawyer works on your case. The amount of the retainer depends on the expected complexity of the case.
- Sliding scale or pro bono services: Some lawyers offer sliding scale fees based on income or provide pro bono (free) services in cases where clients cannot afford to pay full legal fees, especially when children’s needs are at stake.
It’s important to discuss fees with your lawyer during the initial consultation to understand how much you will be charged and what services are covered.
How Much Does a Child Support Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring a child support lawyer varies depending on the complexity of the case, whether it's contested or uncontested, and the lawyer’s experience. General cost estimates include:
- Uncontested child support cases: Legal fees may range from $1,500 to $5,000, depending on the complexity of the paperwork and the lawyer’s fees.
- Contested child support cases: Legal fees can range from $5,000 to $20,000 or more, especially if the case involves significant court time.
- Hourly rates: Lawyers typically charge between $150 and $500 per hour for child support cases, with higher rates for more experienced attorneys or cases that involve complex financial issues.
- Modification or enforcement: Fees for modifying or enforcing a child support order may range from $2,000 to $10,000, depending on the complexity and the need for court intervention.
Always ask for a detailed cost estimate during your consultation so you can plan your budget accordingly.
Top Questions to Ask a Child Support Lawyer
Before hiring a child support lawyer, it’s important to ask questions to ensure they are the right fit for your case. Key questions to ask include:
-
What experience do you have with child support cases?
Ensure the lawyer has experience handling cases similar to yours, whether it’s establishing, modifying, or enforcing child support orders. -
How do you charge for your services?
Clarify whether the lawyer charges by the hour, offers flat fees, or requires a retainer, and ask for a detailed estimate of the total cost. -
What is the likelihood of success in my case?
Ask the lawyer for an honest assessment of your case and any potential challenges you may face. -
How long will the process take?
Child support cases can take time, so ask the lawyer how long they expect the process to last and what factors may cause delays. -
Will you personally handle my case?
In larger firms, junior attorneys or paralegals may handle parts of the case. Make sure you know who will be managing your case and representing you in court. -
What documents should I prepare?
Ask the lawyer what financial documents and other information you should bring to help them calculate child support and build your case.
How to Check the Credibility of a Child Support Lawyer
To ensure you are hiring a reputable child support lawyer, take the following steps to verify their credentials and track record:
- Verify their bar status: Check with your state bar association to confirm that the lawyer is licensed to practice and has no history of disciplinary actions.
- Look for family law experience: Review the lawyer’s website or professional profile to ensure they specialize in family law and have successfully handled child support cases similar to yours.
- Read client reviews and testimonials: Look for client reviews on platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google to see what previous clients have said about the lawyer’s professionalism and success rate.
- Ask for references: A credible lawyer should be able to provide references from past clients who have worked with them on child support matters.
- Check for certifications: Some lawyers may have certifications in family law or membership in organizations like the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers (AAML), which can indicate their expertise in child support and family law issues.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To make the most out of your first consultation with a child support lawyer, it’s important to come prepared with relevant documents and information. Here’s what you should bring:
- Income documents: Bring pay stubs, tax returns, W-2s, or any other documentation of your income and the other parent’s income, as this will be used to calculate child support.
- Existing child support orders: If there are any existing child support or custody orders, bring copies for the lawyer to review.
- Child-related expenses: Provide documentation of your child’s medical bills, education expenses, daycare costs, and any other expenses that should be factored into the child support calculation.
- Communication with the other parent: Bring any communication between you and the other parent regarding child support, whether through emails, text messages, or written agreements.
- List of questions: Prepare a list of questions about your case, the legal process, and the lawyer’s fees.
By preparing thoroughly for your consultation, you can help the lawyer assess your case more effectively and provide the best possible legal advice on how to proceed.
