Ask questions before hiring divorce lawyers in UAE.

Divorce Lawyers in UAE

The outcome of your divorce proceedings will change the course of your life forever, so invest the time and money to find the lawyer who will do the best job for you. Interview two or three divorce lawyers in UAE before deciding who\’ll represent you.

Remember: it\’s your responsibility to fetch a divorce lawyer in Dubai who’s not only good at his or her job but one whose personality and outlook are compatible with yours.

\"Divorce

Here are the questions you should ask during your initial interview to Divorce lawyers in UAE:

• Do you practice family law exclusively? If not, what percentage of your practice is family law?

• How long have you been practicing?

• What is your retainer (the initial fee paid – or, sometimes, the actual contract you sign to officially hire a lawyer)? Is this fee refundable? What is your hourly fee?

• Approximately how much will my divorce cost? The lawyer will only provide an estimate based on the information you provide – and your realistic estimation of how amicable you and your spouse are. If you think your case is straightforward, but your spouse\’s lawyer buries your attorney in paperwork, you can expect your costs to increase.

• What do you think the outcome will be? Remember, you\’re looking for truthfulness here – not to be told a pretty story.

• If your spouse has retained a divorce lawyer, ask your prospective lawyer whether he or she knows this lawyer. If so, ask: \”Have you worked with him or her before? Do you think the lawyer will work to settle the case? And is there anything that would prevent you from working against this lawyer?\”

• What percentage of your cases go to trial? You want to choose a good negotiator who can settle your divorce without a long, expensive court battle.

• Are you willing and able to go to court if this case can\’t be settledd any other way?

• How long will this process take? (Again, the answer will be an approximation.)

• What are my rights, and what are my obligations during my divorce?

• At a full-service law firm, ask who will be handling the case: the lawyer you\’re interviewing, an associate, or a combination of senior and junior lawyers and paralegals?

• What happens now? Do I need to do anything? And when will I hear from you? Finally, if you need to know something or don\’t understand something the lawyer said, don\’t be afraid to clarify.
