We offer family law consulting services to clients in mediation or those who are attempting to achieve a resolution outside of court by negotiating directly with each other in an amicable dissolution, custody paternity, or post-judgment matter. We also consult with clients in the pre-separation stages where it may be too early to file a proceeding, but the appropriate time to define marital and/or custodial rights.
Additionally, we offer limited-scope representation in appropriate cases where clients are in need of legal counsel for a certain one-time matters such as a court hearing, deposition or mediation.
Family law Consulting is when you need a family law attorney but you don’t need a full scope representation you don’t need someone to come in file on your behalf under their name and take you on as their client from the beginning Until the End maybe you just need some guidance support you need even on an hourly basis you have a few questions or you need somebody to ride sidecar with you on a mediation that you want to start and you can go to that person use their expertise use their wide body of knowledge and experience hey this is what I’m thinking about settling on is this a fair deal to me what am I not thinking about please help me so that’s a that’s a primary way that people use a consultant it’s either in mediation or if they’re sitting across from their spouse and they want to just hash out an agreement they maybe will check it with a family law attorney is this fine yes what else do I need to be thinking about and they can bring that into the negotiation so family law Consulting is a really important part of my practice.
I love family law Consulting because I know I can be the most helpful and exactly how the client needs it so they really call the shots if they need hourly support if they need me to come in once a month do we need to go through everything I have clients that come in every couple of years and they just want to sit down with me and figure out where we are what is our game plan I’m really behind the scenes with them though and they’re the front-facing party negotiating with their spouse um so it lets them have a lot of control they also don’t have to worry about inflaming the situation by having a lawyer directly involved they can just use me as a consultant as needed and they feel good about that they can also keep the cost under control exactly what they can afford
