Choosing a divorce solicitor is one of the most important aspects of getting a divorce. Your divorce solicitor is not simply required to reach a financial settlement but to do so in relation to emotionally sensitive issues. This is especially important when children are involved.
To help you pick the right divorce solicitor and give you an idea of what to expect from their service, TakeLegalAdvice.com has asked a panel of divorce solicitors what advice they can offer.
What to look for in a divorce solicitor
All of those interviewed emphasised the importance of working with a divorce solicitor you can feel confident in. They must also be supportive in the advice they give. This relationship is important, says divorce solicitor Naim Qureshi (right), a partner at law firm Child & Child , as the "work involves sharing personal information - so your divorce solicitor needs to be someone you like and get on with."
Finding a divorce expert is also critical and can be done by checking out what organisations your divorce solicitor is a member of. The divorce solicitor association, Resolution , is one such organisation.
