Posted by DivorceLine in Get a Divorce Lawyer in Rhode Island Tips
The title of this Rhode Island Divorce tip article isn’t intended to be self-promotion, although if anyone comes to my door I will consider their case. However, this tip is meant in all seriousness and should be taken seriously. The fact is, that every lawyer licensed to practice law in the State of Rhode Island can prepare a divorce and put it through the Rhode Island court system.
So where’s the tip, right? That’s it! Every lawyer is licensed to put divorces through the court system. . . but should they?
The Rhode Island Supreme Court licenses all of us as attorneys in the general practice of law, including me. When attorney’s advertise or promote themselves in a specific area of law it is because they have chosen to do so and NOT because they are particularly good at it.
That is why I tell you to get a ‘Divorce’ Lawyer. If you are going to spend money to protect your rights, then make sure that you spend it on an attorney who regularly practices divorce and family law before the Rhode Island Family Courts. Regularly does not mean once or twice a month in my estimation.
Let me give you an example. I have had a case with an attorney in the past few months who clearly is NOT a divorce attorney. The attorney used the wrong summons, an ancient divorce complaint form, requested child support for a 20 year old daughter, and was seeking alimony for a woman without any disabilities with a Masters Degree in Culinary Arts. These are only four (4) of the nine (9) glaring mistakes I found on the initial divorce package that my client received.
A divorce will affect your life, your finances, your retirement benefits, your relationships with your children and more. Be sure you entrust something this important to an attorney who practices family law regularly and can answer most of your questions intelligently without a bunch of double-talk.
The root of your writing while sounding agreeable originally, did not settle perfectly with me after some time. Somewhere within the sentences you actually were able to make me a believer. Now, I’m impressed with how much value your site provides to visitors!
Write more, thats all I have to say. Literally, it seems as though you relied on the video to make your point. You obviously know what youre talking about, why waste your intelligence on just posting videos to your weblog when you could be giving us something informative to read?
You completed several good points there. I did a search on the issue and found a good number of folks will have the same opinion with your blog.
Wonderful blog! I found it while browsing on Yahoo News. Do you have any tips on how to get listed in Yahoo News? I’ve been trying for a while but I never seem to get there! Thanks
My brother and I stumbled over here by a different website and thought I might check things out. I like what I see so now i’m following you. A lot of useful divorce info. Look forward to going over your web pages for a second time.
