Best Family Law Attorneys in Taylorsville, UT

What Questions Should I Ask at a Divorce Consultation? Here is a set of questions you should ask a divorce lawyer you intend to hire. Experience-related questions Operations-related questions Case-related questions Fees-related questions There are two stages of hiring an effective and experienced family law attorney who is just right for your case: (1) Short-listing a few lawyers. (2) Interviewing them. In an earlier post, we have guided you on how to shortlist divorce lawyers. In this post, we will guide you on the questions that you should ask your potential attorney during the initial consultation. Experience-Related Questions How many divorce cases does your attorney’s handle at a time? You are looking for a firm staffed with experienced lead attorneys who do not handle more than 35 cases (per attorney) at a time. According to our experience, any attorney who handles more than 35 cases at a time is overloaded with work. At the same time, you also do not want to work with an attorney who does not have a sufficient workload. An attorney may be relatively-free because people probably do not consider him effective. You need to weigh both these factors (overloaded vs. relatively free) and also check whether the law firm has been in practice long enough to build a decent reputation.
