Instructing a family law solicitor
If you’ve never spoken to a solicitor before, don’t worry. Here’s a quick guide to help you find a good family law solicitor:
Think about what issue you need help with.
Choose your solicitor based on their experience in the relevant field.
Find out if they have accreditations in the relevant area of law.
If you need help with family law, find a specialist, not the solicitor who helped sell your house or does work for your business.
Meet a number of solicitors and speak to them. They should give you a few minutes of their time for free.
After meeting a solicitor, ask yourself the following questions:
Did they listen to you?
Do they give you practical solutions?
Was it easy to understand their advice?
Did you get a clear idea of how the case might proceed and the likely costs?
