Northbrook Divorce Lawyers
The decision to divorce can be difficult to make. And once you’ve accepted that realization, one of your next big decisions will involve finding a divorce attorney. But how do you know if you have found the right divorce attorney for you? It all starts with an honest assessment of what you are looking for in a divorce lawyer and what you hope to accomplish during your divorce. At Reifman Law Offices, our skilled and knowledgeable Northbrook divorce lawyers are here to help with all your challenging family law needs. The following are some things to think about when selecting a lawyer for your case.
Experience
Like anything, experience counts. This may be even more true when it comes to lawyers. Since many Northbrook divorce lawyers will charge you by the hour for their time, it pays to hire a lawyer who is efficient and can accomplish a lot in less time. Typically, more experienced attorneys can handle complex tasks in a fraction of the time it would take a less experienced attorney. While the hourly “rate” may be higher, the work takes less time, and there is less chance of having to redo something that could have been done right the first time. In this way, it is often more affordable to hire someone with a slightly higher rate in order to get the job done right.
Personality
Okay, perhaps no one hires a lawyer because they want a friend, but at a minimum, you want your lawyer to be personable, likable, and relatable. Depending on how difficult your divorce is, you could be working closely with this person for months. If your case involves child support or custody, you could be relying on the attorney for years to come. You want someone you actually trust and feel comfortable talking to about your most intimate problems.
Cases the Attorney Handles
Some divorce attorneys only handle divorces, meaning they have made their practice solely about terminating marriages. Other attorneys handle a wide range of family law issues, from custody and paternity disputes to child support enforcement and modification. If you just need an uncontested divorce with no assets or children involved, then perhaps it will not matter as much to you. If there are complications on the horizon, however, then you probably want a lawyer who can handle whatever comes up.
Steps to an Illinois Divorce
- Meet with a lawyer: The first step is meeting with an attorney to find out your options, decide which jurisdiction is appropriate, and work out payment arrangements.
- Decide on a strategy: Next, you and your attorney will decide on a strategy or approach that is suited for you. Will you fight to the end? Are you hoping to keep it friendly? Is it all about keeping the matter private? Whatever your goals, make sure you and your lawyer understand them clearly from the start.
- File your complaint: In order to get divorced, one party must file a complaint for divorce, asking the court to terminate the marriage. This is true even if the divorce is agreed upon.
- Negotiate the terms if possible: It is always a good idea to at least try to settle your divorce, either through your attorneys or by mediation.
- Litigate to trial: If all else fails and you cannot agree on terms, you may have to take your case to trial.
Finding the Right Lawyer
In the end, finding the right lawyer for you will depend on the specifics of your divorce and your goals. You want someone who is a good match for you and your case. Do not be afraid to shop around and talk to several Northbrook divorce attorneys before making a decision. Remember, your divorce is a huge life event, and it should not be taken lightly.
