Selecting a divorce attorney is a critical decision making
process. The person who you hire will be responsible for
obtaining or maintaining your custody rights to your children,
your property interests, and depending upon the side you are
one, either minimizing or maximizing your support rights. In
reality, selecting a divorce attorney is also an incredibly
stressful experience. Do it right and you can breath easy. Do it
wrong and you will spend years making up for losses that might
have been prevented.

There are a few tried and true tactics that you should be using
when you select a divorce attorney. Before you even begin, you
need to identify the type of case that you will be involved in.
Will you be mediating your divorce? Will you be negotiating? Or,
will your case be one of those cases that goes to court and
becomes a knock down, drag out divorce litigation? There are
divorce attorneys who specialize in these different types of
cases and you need to hire the type of divorce attorney who is
best suited to the type of case that you have. If you need to
deal with a knock down, drag out litigation, you do not want a
mediation attorney trying to protect your interests. Likewise,
if you are going through mediation, the last thing you want is a
divorce attorney who will try to create issues and move you
towards litigation.

So, step one in the process of selecting a divorce attorney is
to identify the type of case that you have. Next, start asking
people for help. Since the divorce rate in the United States is
at about 50%, chances are you know at least several people who
have been through a divorce. Ask about their process, how they
selected a divorce attorney, and how their attorney performed
for them.

AFter you have received the names of several divorce attorneys
that you received from asking other people, go online and start
researching those attorneys and others. Many divorce attorneys
have websites, write articles, and advertise on divorce portal
websites. You can get quite a bit of information about how an
attorney approaches cases and treats clients by reviewing their
website.

After you have reviewed the divorce attorney websites, make a
list of at least two and as many as five divorce attorneys who
you think you will be comfortable speaking with. Call the
offices of those divorce attorneys and schedule consultations.
Some of those attorneys will charge you for a consultation; the
more experience the attorney has, the more likely that you will
have to pay for time with that attorney.

When you attend a consultation with a divorce attorney, be
prepared. Make an outline of the history of your marriage and
the problems facing you now. If you or your spouse has filed any
papers in court, make sure you bring them with you. Bring one or
two years tax returns or a recent financial statement so that
the divorce attorney can review some of your financial data
before being asked questions about “results”.

Make sure you ask each divorce attorney questions about how that
attorney’s office operates in response to client phone calls,
emails, or other inquiries or needs. If you will be working with
a divorce attorney who has no other attorney in their office, be
prepared to wait in line when you have a need for a response.
That attorney will have other clients who have needs just as
significant as yours, and an attorney can be responsive to only
one client at a time. Even with that drawback, there may be a
divorce attorney who you feel is just right for you who is also
a solo practitioner. That is a trade off that you may have to
get comfortable with.

After you have completed all of the consultations and reviewed
the answers to all of your questions, decide which divorce
attorney you felt most comfortable with and which one you
believe will work with you to get the type of results that you
want.
