2. Consider the attorney's reputation: Look for an attorney who has a good reputation in the community and among their peers. You can ask other attorneys for recommendations, or check online reviews to get a sense of what others think of the attorney.
3. Look for someone you feel comfortable with: It's important to feel comfortable and trust your attorney, as you'll be sharing sensitive and personal information with them. Look for an attorney who you feel you can be open and honest with, and who will be responsive to your needs.
4. Consider the attorney's fees: Family law cases can be expensive, so it's important to have a clear understanding of the attorney's fees upfront. Look for an attorney who is transparent about their fees and who is willing to work with you to come up with a payment plan that fits your budget.
5. Ask about the attorney's approach: Different attorneys have different approaches to handling cases. Some are more aggressive, while others take a more collaborative approach. Consider what approach you feel most comfortable with and look for an attorney who aligns with your preferences.
