Being in the middle of a divorce can be a stressful and emotional experience. But things can get even more complicated and confusing if you’re dissatisfied with your attorney. If this happens, you’ll likely find yourself asking: “Can I change my attorney once divorce proceedings are underway?”
Yes! You can appoint a new divorce attorney to take over your case. Here’s a closer look at why you might want to change your divorce attorney and how to proceed.
Here are some of the reasons you’d want to change your divorce attorney:
If any of these sounds familiar, it’s about time to part ways with your divorce lawyer. Instead, you should seek the services of a competent divorce attorney whose skills and capabilities you can count on. A qualified divorce attorney will regularly communicate with you, empathize with you and give your case the attention and seriousness it deserves.
Experience and good reputation are the two most important factors to consider when choosing a divorce attorney. Make sure your new attorney is reputable, experienced, and has handled cases similar to yours. Having an attorney with several wins under their belt will make you feel comfortable and confident about your case’s progress.
Also, choose a divorce attorney with a track record of getting things done quickly and efficiently. They should also be willing to attend to all your case’s needs throughout the divorce process.
Once you’ve settled on a new divorce attorney, ensure to go over your case with them in detail. Be open and answer all their questions truthfully.
