A party may wish to have a family law attorney available during the case to provide him with guidance on how to navigate through the divorce process. This works in cases where the parties are amicable and they are working together to come to agreements either on their own or through an independent divorce mediator. Alternatively, where one party wants to make sure that he or she is making the best deal during settlement negotiations, without the other side knowing that he or she is working with an attorney.

Hiring The Soleymani Law Firm for legal consulting is also beneficial because our experienced can draft and review documents pertaining to divorce, property division, spousal and child support, child custody and visitation and other family law issues prior to them being submitted for signing and/or filing. It is important to have an experienced attorney review these documents with a fine tooth comb and explain what they mean, as their effects may be binding for years to come. California provides certain rights to all individuals and unless a litigant is trained in the nuances of family law, he may be giving up his rights or negotiating a settlement that is not in his best interests.

If a party chooses to use an attorney’s services for legal consulting during a family law proceeding, the attorney does not become that party’s attorney of record. Rather, the attorney helps the party by guiding and advising the client of what offers are reasonable, what a Court would likely do and what the law is. Additionally, an attorney who only provides legal consulting can advise the client before entering into any final agreements. The knowledgeable staff at The Soleymani Law Firm can help the parties with creative solutions to avoid costly litigation and to maintain the peace.
