Top 3 Ways to Find the Best Mesa Divorce Lawyer

Going through a divorce can be one of the most difficult times in your life. The advice of a good divorce lawyer can be invaluable. How does one begin the search for a good divorce lawyer in Mesa?

1. Recommendations from friends/family

Begin by asking friends and family if they know of a divorce lawyer that is familiar with Arizona divorce law. Satisfied clients are the best advertisement.

If you know any attorneys personally, ask them who they would recommend. Attorneys have had the opportunity to see how other attorneys perform in court and also know if they have a good working relationship with the judges in Mesa.

2. Most divorce lawyers offer free consultations, use this to interview a few lawyers, etc.

Once you have narrowed your choices down to a few lawyers it’s time to schedule a consultation with each of them. When you make the calls be certain to inquire if they offer free consultations.

Prepare for your appointment by compiling a list of questions for the divorce lawyer. One of the more important questions to ask is how long they have been practicing divorce law and if they have experience with cases similar to yours.

Do you feel at ease with this divorce lawyer? Will you be comfortable discussing personal aspects of your life with this attorney?

This is also the time to discuss the divorce lawyer’s fees to be certain that you can afford his or her services.

3. Check their standing with the Arizona State Bar

The purpose of the Arizona State Bar is to protect the public from unscrupulous attorneys. All attorneys in the state of Arizona are required to follow the Rules of Professional Conduct and it is the responsibility of the Arizona State Bar to investigate charges brought against lawyers. By visiting the Arizona State Bar’s website you can find out if there are any unresolved complaints against the divorce lawyer before retaining them.

The internet contains a wealth of information, so visit the azbar.org website and the websites of any Mesa divorce lawyers that you are considering. This can help give you a basic idea of the type of firm you are dealing with.
At My AZ Lawyers you will find only highly experienced attorneys that specialize in specific fields, such as divorce law. Aside from basic legal education they are required to obtain continuing education in their field to stay abreast of changing laws, thus giving them the edge over other attorneys with only a generalized legal education. A knowledgeable divorce lawyer with a great deal of experience in divorce proceedings can put you at a distinct advantage.
