Settling Out of Court
One of the reasons why hiring an attorney may end up costing you a lot of money is because many attorneys encourage each party to fight for every penny and possession. Instead of opting for an out-of-court settlement, some attorneys create an environment where one party seems vindictive, causing both parties to demand more from the other. This type of negotiating leads to prolonged cases where legal and court fees pile up, creating more money for the attorneys involved but costing both parties more money.
By working closely with my clients to identify their goals and budgeting concerns, my strategy is to seek an out-of-court settlement that is suitable for both parties involved, thus saving you more money. If we simply cannot settle out of court, I will be prepared to fight for you in family court to protect your interests.
Some of the benefits of settling out of court include:
- Less time-consuming
- Allows for a mutual understanding between both parties
- Saves money in the long run
- Usually less stressful than going before a judge
