When hiring a divorce and child custody attorney, there are several key factors you should consider:

  1. Experience: Look for an attorney and law firm who has experience in handling divorce and child custody cases. You want an attorney who has a good track record of success in these areas and knows the ins and outs of the legal system.
  2. Knowledge: Make sure your attorney is knowledgeable about the laws and regulations governing divorce and child custody in your state and county. This includes understanding the various types of distribution of marital property, custody arrangements and how they may apply to your situation.
  3. Communication: Choose an attorney who communicates clearly and regularly with you about your case. You want an attorney who will keep you informed and answer any questions you may have. You also have to make sure your attorney knows how to strategically communicate with the opposing party and opposing counsel to set you up for success.
  4. Personality Fit: It’s important to find an attorney who you feel comfortable working with and who understands your needs and concerns. You want someone who listens to you and takes your opinions and goals into account. Make sure your law firm’s Core Values are in line with those things that are important to you.
  5. Cost: Make sure you understand the law firm’s fee structure and that it fits within your budget. You may want to ask about any additional costs that may arise, such as court fees or expert witness fees. Make sure you are not hiring an attorney who does unnecessary work or files unnecessary pleadings with the court to maximize your bill. Find a law firm who is financial responsible for making the best use of your money.
  6. Reputation: Research the attorney’s reputation in the legal community and among previous clients. Many people don’t know this, but you may ask for references from the law firm.

By considering these factors, you can find an attorney who will represent your interests effectively and help you achieve the best possible outcome for your divorce and child custody case.
