Important Points to Remember
Often clients come into our office after making mistakes with how they handled their Divorce or Custody case.  Here are some important points to remember so that you do not make similar mistakes and jeopardize your rights.

1) NEVER, EVER sign any divorce or separation papers without consulting an attorney. Many times clients unknowingly waive important rights and interests in property that they are entitled because they simply did not know about such rights.

2) Your spouse’s attorney is NOT your attorney.  An attorney can not represent both spouses in a divorce.  Even if you meet your spouse’s attorney in their office, he or she is only looking out for your spouse’s interest not yours!

3) Even if you think the divorce is uncontested CONSULT an attorney.  An attorney will be aware of issues that you and your spouse have not considered.  These issues can have a serious effect on child support and even your personal income tax.

4) Don’t believe any advice about the law unless it comes from an attorney.  Friends and family have good intentions but often give incorrect advice as to what your legal rights are, be smart consult an attorney.

If you are filing for divorce or legal separation, if you have child support or child custody issues that need to be resolved, our law firm can help you.  Contact us today for a free consultation appointment.
