New Client

For New Clients

We place great emphasis on our clients, and, pursuant to our firm’s “Ten Commandments“, do everything possible to making clients comfortable with all of the aspects of their unique case.

Our client intake process is quite straightforward:

Initial Consultation

This is the first visit between client and attorney, a time for each to assess the other. Background information is gathered, and divorce procedures and alternatives are explained. There is a fee for this consultation, although no time limit is imposed and no commitment is made. At the end of the meeting the attorney will quote a retainer fee to the client.

Retainer

If both client and attorney are comfortable with each other, the next step is to retain the attorney by signing a fee agreement and providing the retainer fee. Summons, petition and notice of retainer will be prepared as necessary, depending upon which spouse is initiating the action.
