Absolutely! Divorce
lawyers should consider every aspect
of your particular situation and
strategise reasonable solutions for your
estate, your health and your children.
Some divorce lawyers are
specialists in child custody so if that
is the main focus of your divorce
proceeding then it is available to hire
one of these. However, each divorce
lawyer should be well versed with every
aspect of divorce so a child custody
specialist is not necessary. If a
divorce lawyer you meet does not address
factors like children then you should
change lawyer as they are not acting
holistically.
Should we choose
divorce
lawyers
or mediators?
The choice between
divorce lawyers and mediators falls
between ‘contested’ and ‘uncontested’
divorces. If a divorce is to be
vehemently contested then there is no
choice but to choose divorce lawyers.
The point of mediation has passed.
Mediators are negotiators that iron out
differences in marriages. Mediators have
the aim to save your marriage. Divorce
lawyers have the aim to end the
marriage. If you feel the relationship
is saveable then go to the mediator. If
you are determined to go for a divorce
then still go for a mediator. They can
reduce the cost of a divorce by
negotiating an end before it goes to
court. Explore mediation as an
alternative. It may fit your situation. |
