Food for Thought When Hiring a Divorce Lawyer

I have the opportunity to work with many talented lawyers and their clients.  It is truly a privilege to have people put their trust in me to help them resolve the most important issues they face.  This article from The Huffington Post gives good advice to clients who are seeking divorce counsel and dispels the myth that the meanest divorce lawyer is necessarily the most effective.  As with all relationships, the key to the attorney/client relationship is trust – the client must trust the attorney has their best interests in view.  As a mediator, I strive to build trust with both clients and attorneys from the outset so we can reach the best and most effective result.   The advice here is practical and should be heeded by anyone who has to hire divorce counsel.
