Divorce

Divorce is the process of legally terminating a marriage. Papers need to be filed with the court seeking a divorce, and setting forth the appropriate statutory requirements which vary from state to state. Each state has its own requirements as to the conditions and circumstances under which a divorce may be granted. Since issues related to divorce are determined by reference to state law, and because state laws on divorce vary, it is critically important to find the right divorce lawyer.

Finding your Divorce lawyer

CheckedOutFamilyLawyers.com provides the best way to find divorce lawyers and divorce attorneys, along with divorce laws and information.

To find the right divorce lawyer for you, it's critical to use a method that makes sense. Two common methods make little sense:

Advertisements & Attorney Listing Services …

Is the divorce lawyer with the biggest ad in the phone book the best divorce lawyer for you? Not likely. It's easy to see why you might not find the attorney who's right for you through an advertisement.

How about services that merely list attorneys, often on websites? Are they any better? Probably not. Listing services are typically just advertisements. Like the phone book, cash is usually the only criteria for a service to list a family lawyer.

Ask yourself: Do listing services screen attorneys in any way?

Do they check …

• References of other attorneys?
• References of former clients?
• If a family lawyer has a disciplinary history?
• If a family lawyer is properly licensed?
• If family law a significant part of a lawyer's practice?

Listing services typically fail to answer any of these questions. They simply leave it up to you.

Client Referrals …

Client (non-lawyer) referrals usually make little sense. Why? Because clients rarely know enough about the process of practicing law to understand what their divorce lawyer actually did for them. Or to understand if their divorce lawyer did a quality job for them compared to other divorce lawyers.

Could they have achieved a better result with another attorney? Were the results achieved by the divorce lawyer typical for that lawyer?

It's not that client referrals can't be helpful, but they should be only one of several criteria that a person uses to hire an attorney.
