Your First Consultation: What to Ask and What to Know
An initial consultation is your chance to interview your potential lawyer. It’s an opportunity to get the best legal advice possible before you commit. Here’s what you should focus on to ensure you’re making the right choice:
- Ask About Their Experience: Don’t be afraid to ask about their specific experience with cases like yours. Are they experienced in mutual consent divorce or do they specialize in more complex contested divorce cases? A lawyer with a proven track record can offer the best legal advice on the most effective strategy.
- Discuss Your Goals: Be open and honest about what you want to achieve. Do you hope for a swift separation through a mutual consent divorce? Is a fair division of assets your priority? Are you fighting for child custody? The lawyer should listen carefully to your goals and give you an honest assessment of what is possible.
- Understand the Process: The best legal advice includes a clear roadmap. Ask the attorney to walk you through the entire divorce process. This should include an explanation of a Divorce Petition drafting, mediation, and court hearings. They should also explain what to expect regarding procedures like Judicial Separation or a Transfer of petition in Supreme Court. This transparency gives you peace of mind.
- Clarify Costs and Fees: Legal fees are a major concern for anyone. A transparent lawyer will discuss their fee structure upfront during your consultation. You should understand how they bill their time, what the total costs might be, and what is included in their services. Getting this information upfront is part of receiving the best legal advice.
By taking these steps, you’re not just getting legal information—you’re getting the best legal advice on how to approach one of the most significant moments of your life.
