Top 5 Questions to Ask Before Hiring a Divorce Attorney in NYC
Keep in mind that there is no such thing as the 'best' divorce lawyer in NYC. The best lawyer to you might be the worst to another and vice versa. Instead, you should seek to find the lawyer who is the best fit for you, and asking the following five questions will help you do that:
1. Do You Specialize in Matrimonial Law?
You wouldn't want to hire an accident lawyer or a criminal lawyer to represent you in a divorce case, no more than you would want to hire a foot doctor to operate on your brain. Optimize your chances of getting a favorable order or settlement by choosing a divorce attorney In NY who specializes in divorce.
2. What is the Best Strategy for My Case?
If you schedule a free consultation with Krasner Law or any other divorce law firm in NYC, we will go over your case with you and answer all of your questions. After you have informed the lawyer of all the details surrounding your divorce, ask them what they think the best strategy would be for your case. If you get a glossed-over, cookie-cutter answer, you might want to find a lawyer who can give you a straight-forward, customized solution.
3. Do You Have Any Past Clients that You Can Refer Me to?
If a divorce lawyer has been in business for at least 24 months, they should be able to refer you to some online reviews. While it is true that lawyers can't break the confidentiality of their clients, they should have some reviews and personal/professional references.
4. How Do You Bill for Your Services?
When consulting with a NY divorce lawyer, it's important to ask them up-front how they bill. For example, do they bill by the hour? Do they charge flat rates for all of their services? Are they going to charge you if you spend time with other lawyers and paralegals in the firm? Get all of this information up-front before you hire a lawyer.
5. Do You Foresee Any Other Costs in My Case
This ties into the second question that we recommend. Not only should you consider the cost of the legal services offered by your lawyer, but you should also consider other costs, such as expert witnesses, private investigators, and other costs.
