The Story

Once a girl named Sally met a boy named Harry. They fell in love, got married, bought a house and had two kids. Day by day Harry starts to hate the fried eggs Sally cooked in the morning everyday; and Sally started to pay undue attention to a new French guy who had moved next door. Arguments started and grew into big fights; Harry filed for a divorce. Sally immediately took the advice of a family law attorney but Harry did not (after all it is her fault). Sally did not just employ any lawyer; she took the best family attorney of Beverly Hills. Sally did not work and the lawyer charged on fat hourly salary. End of the story: Sally got the house, the kids and with them, alimony and child support.

Beware

If you do not want to take the counsel of a family law attorney you better think twice, otherwise you will end up on the streets just like Harry. Family law lawyers are indispensable when filing a divorce where property, assets and children are involved. These kinds of lawyers are professionally trained to support you during your divorce. You will have to let them know from the start about every asset you have, pension plan and property etc. A family law attorney will work for your safety and will advise you on the best moves to make.

A good family divorce attorney will have a lot of experience and like our friend Sally; you might be rewarded for the traumatic experience of a failed marriage. The family law attorney per excellence will also support you emotionally and will make sure that you are able to maintain the lifestyle you had when you were married in future as well.

Equal To All

A family law attorney should not have gender bias, giving equal legal rights to both the father and the mother. He/She should also take into primary consideration children and should always make sure that they get all the psychological and financial benefits of the divorce, (Harry and Sally's children receive a lot of gifts, when the child support check arrives at the end of the month). The most important thing when choosing an attorney is to remember that if you hire an expensive one, you will benefit at a later stage, because the bill will be sent to the one who loses the divorce case. We wish all the best in your search and we hope that your next love story will never end!
