Taking Help From The Right Divorce Lawyer

The initial step that you have to take while obtaining a divorce from your partner is finding the best divorce

attorney in Rhode Island who you are most comfortable with. Many divorce attorneys provide free initial

consultations, while you will find many who charge it as well. Well, you should always prefer that lawyer who

provides free initial consultation. While choosing a good lawyer, you should always check the experience and

the success rate of the past cases. This information will help you determine, whether he/she is proficient in the

field or not. Moreover, you should also ask the hourly charge and any other initial amount or retainer.

It is somewhat impossible to actually determine how much a divorce will cost you from starting to end.

However, you can get a good idea if you will ask the estimate of the eventual fee. The real cost will never go

beyond an estimated value, hence everything will remain in budget only. There are several other factors that

depends such as, how quickly your settlement is reached, the number of cases you and the other party files, the

division of the property and assets, documents involved in the case, animosity of you and your spouse in the

case, waiting time and so on.

The fact is simple, the longer it takes to reach to a settlement, the more fees you will have to pay to your lawyer

as he/she will have to dedicate more time on your case. If you and your partner can’t reach to a point where you

both are satisfied, then the trial will go on, hence making everything more expensive for you. If everything is

settled and no party has any issues, then it will cost both you and your partner a lot less. So, it’s up to you how

difficult you want to make this upon yourself.

It is true that the uncontested divorces in RI are a lot less expensive than the contested divorces. There are many

different types of uncontested divorces. Either, an uncontested divorce will have assets to divide or without any

assets. If the case is uncontested and there are a few asset involved, then the divorce attorney RI may have to

prepare a property settlement agreement, qualified domestic relation orders and all other deeds. The cost of the

uncontested divorces could vary depending upon the circumstances of the divorce. Therefore, the cost of an

uncontested divorce could vary depending on the circumstances. The lawyer will work hard in the case if there

is any draft to prepare regarding the property settlement agreement.

Let me give you a rough idea of the price that an uncontested divorce in RI will have with no assets or property

settle agreement. The fee will be around $1000, plus additional costs as well. After retaining the lawyer, there

will be an intake process in which your lawyer will get basic information so that he/she is able to represent you

in the best possible way. The lawyer will draft the documents and then, you have to sign them in front of

him/her or some other notary. These documents generally consist of the divorce complaint, financial statement,

counselor’s statement, child statement (if any), divorce report, automatic divorce order and summons.

You have to make some important decisions before you file for divorce in RI. You have to make a strategy on a

number of occasions. It will not be an easy task, but with the help of a good divorce attorney, you’ll be able to

come out of the situation and live a free life again. But, it is important to pick the right lawyer.
