How are decisions about the children handled if we cannot agree?
How quickly do you respond, and who do I contact when you are in court?
How this work is usually billed
Family work is usually hourly against a retainer you top up as it is drawn down. Uncontested separations are sometimes offered as a flat fee. The cost gap between a negotiated agreement and a contested trial is very large, so ask about both.
What to have ready
Dates of marriage and separation, a rough list of assets and debts, recent pay information for both parties, and any agreement already signed.
