We highly recommend that you hire a specialized attorney in advance of your divorce. Not only can this help you save money in the long run, but the details of your divorce will also be as precise as can be for both partners involved.
As you get started, here is a list of questions you should ask: 1) What materials do I need to gather for our initial meeting? 2) What is the average cost of a divorce? 3) How will that work if my partner does not hire an attorney? 4) Can you inform me of my general legal rights? 5) Will we need a mediator? 6) Upon initial filing, what should I expect? 7) Does my spouse need to be served papers? 8) How do we decide who has the children and when? 9) How do we deviate from debts? 10) Who will keep the house? 11) Do We have a prenuptial agreement? How shall we handle this? 12) How long should we be legally separated before a divorce? 13) Is my state an "at fault" or "no-fault" state? What does that mean? 14) Will I qualify for alimony? These are just a few of the questions that jump-start the divorce process. We recommend you research more depending on your pre-divorce circumstances. Please message me with any questions.
