Wade Law Group February 2018

You’ve been struggling with the decision for some time, but it’s reached the final point. You know the sad and frustrating truth: Your marriage is ending. OR BOTH? MEDIATOR, ATTORNEY,

Now, your next steps determine how much more sadness and frustration you have to endure.

When you know divorce is the next step in your life, it’s time to determine if an attorney is necessary to reach some agreement between you and your spouse. Keep in mind that the more you are able to agree upon, the less money you will ultimately spend fighting. If you can agree on some aspects of your divorce, but not everything, a mediator might be a better option. By working with a neutral attorney who acts as a mediator, you can potentially save thousands of dollars and avoid unnecessary fights in court. When you reach an agreement, your mediator will draft all of the necessary documents to settle your divorce. If you are fortunate, you will never have to go to court. You will simply sign the documentation prepared by the neutral attorney. If you are unable to agree, you’ll need to hire your own attorney to take over your case. Remember, just because you retain your own attorney, it doesn’t mean you are declaring war against your spouse or insinuating that a fight is unavoidable and your case will not settle.

Your attorney should try and resolve your case amicably, because it is always in your best interest to settle your case sooner. However, settling the case upfront may not always be possible, and that’s when you need an attorney who has a special set of skills. When you are searching for the appropriate attorney to represent you in your divorce case, you need to select someone who has two sets of skills. You need an attorney who can settle your case quickly and efficiently, and at the same time, will fight aggressively for your case if a fight becomes necessary.
