One of the questions my office gets asked all the time is, “Do I even need to hire a family attorney?” And to be honest, this is a tough inquiry to respond to right out of the gate.
Why? Because it depends on a lot of factors. For example, what does your case concern? Is it being contested? Does the other side have representation? Are there a lot of specific issues we need to resolve?
These points must be determined to determine whether you genuinely need a family attorney.
Top reasons to hire a family attorney
We understand how challenging it can be to bring legal issues into your family. At our firm, we aim to help you achieve your case goals while making the process as painless and straightforward as possible. Legal matters can often stretch out for many months and even years without a family attorney on your side, leading to long periods of pain, struggle, and sleepless nights.
Another benefit of hiring a family attorney is that you’ll receive objective advice about the best courses of action at any given stage of your case. Understanding how to react to the other party’s actions and requests can be challenging. The legal process itself is complex and not designed for laypeople. Specific paperwork must be filed in a particular manner, and hard and fast time constraints and statutes of limitations leave little room for error. Our team will take care of the complicated legal processes so that you don’t have to.
Next, family lawyers can help facilitate mediation between divorcing spouses for those interested in avoiding litigation, especially in divorce cases. Mediation is nearly always superior to litigation in divorce cases as it can help create more amicable relations and legal arrangements between the two parties. This is good for each party, and it is also perfect for any children involved.
Finally, you’ll often find that family law attorneys offer more competitive legal fees (as opposed to traditional nonfamily attorneys).
