What are the best times to contact a divorce lawyer?

When should you contact a divorce lawyer? Your initial meeting with a lawyer should bring you both relief. In addition to getting an overview of the divorce process, attorneys will answer your initial questions and come up with a preliminary plan of action. First, you need to understand your situation. The next step after assessing your situation is to talk with an attorney about the details of your case.

An attorney might advise you to get as much information about your spouse's drug abuse as possible. This information could have a significant impact on your child custody arrangements. You should notify your attorney immediately if you have been informed about your spouse's substance abuse. Your divorce lawyer will tell you to save all information pertaining to your spouse's alcohol or drug abuse. This will prevent any future disputes over money.

You should also bring copies of any mortgages and property titles to your initial consultation. Your financial situation will be important to your attorney. It is also beneficial to bring your prenuptial agreement and any other documents related to your finances. You should also provide any student loan debts you might have. An attorney should be able to identity the person responsible for these debts. You should also bring copies of your most recent tax returns.

An initial consultation is an excellent time to meet your attorney. This is where you can meet your lawyer and ask any questions. If you have concerns, be sure to discuss them openly. Your attorney will be able to address them and advise you accordingly. A consultation with your attorney will give you an estimate of the cost involved in your case. It is important to ask about the fee upfront. This will help you to understand what to expect during the divorce process.

Once you have decided that divorce is the right course of action, it's time to make copies of all financial documents and begin saving. You should also begin to prepare for the expenses related to the divorce. The last thing you need is to fear your spouse finding out you're hiring a lawyer. It is important to keep in touch with your attorney as often as possible. You don't want your partner to discover that your financial details were discussed in the first meeting.

The first meeting with your divorce lawyer should be a very productive meeting. You should not only discuss the legal issue, but also learn about your spouse's financial situation. Your lawyer will be able to prepare for the divorce proceedings by knowing this information. If you are considering a divorce, make sure you're aware of your spouse's financial situation before the meeting. This will allow you to determine if you should request a division of marital assets.
