Divorce can be a tumultuous time for everyone involved. When you have child support and alimony to figure out, property and assets to divide, and are feeling uncertain about what the future holds, who has the time–or the expertise–to make sense of the legal aspects of your divorce case?

Once you decide to take to legal action to dissolve your marriage, use these steps to find the right lawyer for your case:
- Talk to trusted friends and family and ask who they would recommend.
- Contact the local state bar association or law school and ask for recommendations.
- Make a list of the qualities you are looking for in a potential divorce attorney and research those who fit your criteria in your area.
- Meet with more than one attorney. Most firms offer free consultations and this can be a great way to get a feel for how they work.
- Request references from a potential divorce attorney and contact the local state bar association to see if they have ever had any disciplinary action against them.
