Colwell Testimonial Comp Final
- Q. Looking for a lawyer to represent my daughter. It's a child custody case where the father is a narcissistic
- A: You are well served with an attorney experienced in the area of family law. I am happy to have an intake specialist contact you if you wish to provide your contact information. Message our firm if you are interested in a free initial consultation. This is a common characteristic in many of our child custody matters. However, it is important to discuss all of the facts and circumstances with an experienced attorney ASAP.
- Q. hello my name is norma i am looking to get a divorce and was wondering what steps i need to take to start that process
- A: Most attorneys will provide a free initial consultation. Find a divorce lawyer in your area and contact him or her to set up a consultation.
- Q. i want to hire a NY family court lawyer, but he is employed as the court attorney. Is this a conflict or problem?
- A: It is unclear from your question whether or not the attorney you wish to hire would have a conflict of interest problem. The best thing to do would be to ask the attorney directly if he or she would have a conflict of interest in the event he or she took your case.
