With nearly 20 years practicing family law in Jacksonville and surrounding areas, we’ve become accustomed to answering questions. Whether an initial divorce consultation or a very specific family law issue (alimony modification, child custody modification, or military divorce to name a few), our team has put together some helpful questions you might want to ask your attorney during your initial consultation.
[list type=”bullet”]
- Is your main area of practice Family Law?
- What types of cases are you most passionate about?
- How long have you been practicing Divorce and Family Law?
- What is the average percentage of cases you’ve helped settle out of court?
- Will you be personally handling my case?
- Is mediation required in divorce cases?
- What percentage of your cases go to trial?
- What is your preferred method of communication (phone, e-mail, fax, etc.)?
- How much will my case cost?

Of course there are other questions that might pertain to your specific needs or goals, but we hope this list gives you a good start when attempting to select an attorney to best represent you.
