Family Law FAQs

Q

How Can a Family Law Attorney Help Me?

Answer: A family law attorney can provide you with a range of valuable services and support as you address legal matters that affect your family. They can offer professional legal advice regarding issues such as divorce and separation, child custody and support, adoption, domestic violence and orders of protection, mediation, prenuptial and postnuptial agreements, and more.

Q

Do I Need a Family Law Attorney for My Case?

Answer: Chances are, if you are wondering whether you need a lawyer, that likely means that whatever legal situation you are navigating, it is complex and serious enough to warrant hiring legal representation. Meeting with an attorney for an initial consultation can help you understand the legal issues you may need to address and determine whether you will need assistance going forward. Family law attorneys are legal professionals who are trained in matters that affect spouses, parents, children, and other family members. While no law requires you to hire an attorney to represent you during your family law case, having legal counsel during these matters can prove highly beneficial. Not only does hiring a lawyer for your case mean you will be legally protected, but it also means you will have a legal advocate in your corner fighting for your rights and interests.

Q

How Much Does it Cost to Hire a Family Law Attorney?

Answer: The costs of hiring an attorney will depend on what services or legal issues you need assistance with. Depending on your case, legal services may be provided at an hourly rate, or flat fees may be paid for specific services, such as drafting a prenuptial agreement or handling an uncontested divorce. The costs can escalate significantly in more complex cases, such as contested divorces or child custody disputes. Discussing the appropriate fee structures and your expectations regarding expenses during your initial consultation is essential. Remember that the cost of hiring a family law attorney is an investment in securing a positive outcome to your case and protecting your future.

Q

How Long Does it Take to Resolve a Family Law Case?

Answer: As is true for questions regarding how much a family law attorney costs, the length of time it takes to resolve a family law case depends on many variables. How complex are the issues that need to be resolved? Do you expect to encounter disputes that could prolong the legal process or require multiple court appearances? These are questions that you can discuss with your attorney to gain a better understanding of how long your case will take.

Q

What Factors Should I Consider When Selecting a Family Law Attorney?

Answer: Experience, track record, reputation in the legal community, access to resources, focus and availability of their firm, and more are all things you should consider before selecting your family law to help with your case.

Q

Can I Modify Family-Related Court Orders or Agreements After They Are in Place?

Answer: Only a judge can modify a court order. After an agreement is in place, you may decide to seek a change regarding spousal support, child support, parenting time, custody, or other related issues. In most cases, modification requests must be based on significant changes in circumstances that have affected you, your children, or your ex-partner.

Q

Can Family Law Cases Be Resolved Through Mediation or Alternative Dispute Resolution Methods?

Answer: Absolutely. Property division, spousal support, child support, paternity, child custody, parenting plans, and other family law issues can be resolved through mediation or using other methods to reach agreements outside of the courtroom.
