How Can the Best Family Law Attorneys Represent You?

Four Parts to the Best Family Law Representation

The best representation involves four key parts:

1. Regular communication between you and your attorney
2. Your honesty about the facts and disclosures
3. Your availability to your family law attorney
4. Letting your family law attorney be your advocate

You may have heard the expression "garbage in, garbage out." This applies to your family law case. Even if you hire the best family law attorney, achieving a good result requires full cooperation throughout the case.

1. Communication: The Foundation of the Attorney-Client Relationship

Effective communication is essential. While you don't need to speak with your attorney daily, it's important to communicate via phone or email about the status of your case every one to two weeks. This frequency increases during busy times, such as upcoming court hearings, ongoing investigations, discovery processes, or approaching settlement conferences or trials.

Our family law attorneys maintain this communication frequency, ensuring clients hear from us weekly, without exception.

2. Honest Disclosure: Sharing All Relevant Information

When your family law attorney requests information, provide it completely and honestly.

Holding back facts or documents can hinder your attorney's ability to advocate for you. Your attorney needs all the facts about your case, financial situation, custody and visitation issues, and other relevant documents to be effective.

Our attorneys simplify this process by specifying the information needed and thoroughly reviewing what you provide. We ensure clarity and patience, guiding you through the process to collect all relevant information, whether beneficial or not.

3. Availability: Being Easy to Reach

It's crucial to remain reachable. We rarely face this issue with our clients, but it can be problematic when clients become unavailable without notifying their attorney. Regular communication helps prevent such situations, ensuring your attorney is always informed.

4. Advocacy: Trusting Your Family Law Attorney

Let your attorney do their job. Avoid settling a case prematurely or without proper preparation. Trust your attorney to conduct necessary discovery and follow through with essential information. Effective communication and understanding the strategy, budget, and process are key.

The Role of Your Family Law Attorney

Your attorney's role is to facilitate cooperation, communication, and contact.

Hiring a top family law attorney without fully engaging in your case wastes time and money. Our firm excels at emphasizing the importance of these aspects and working with clients to achieve fair and lawful results.
