Your Goals for the Meeting

Preparing for the Meeting with your  Attorney

To make the most of your conversation with Mr. Green, it’s important to think through your case ahead of time. Los Angeles divorce attorneys are best able to represent you when they know about your priorities and concerns.

It’s also a good idea to gather information in advance about your assets and debts, including the date of acquisition, the value at that time, and their current value. You should know your total monthly expenses, and you should collect documents relevant to your business interests and assets.

If minor children are involved in the case, bring the birth certificates and the most recent report cards. Should the case require an attorney’s representation before a Los Angeles family law judge, these documents may be important in determining child custody and visitation.

Many clients don’t have all of this information at the time of the initial consultation. Other clients can’t get access to it because of actions the spouse has taken. Charles Green can talk with you about legal options for collecting these details.

Objectives and Approach

During the initial consultation, talk about your expectations for your legal representation. Most clients want an attorney who isn’t out to destroy the other party but instead someone who will help them resolve the case and move on with their lives. Unfortunately, not every case can be closed simply, either due to the other party’s irresponsibility or because of its complexity.

As a divorce attorney who specializes in child custody and  property division, Charles Green offers experience in both negotiation and litigation. He looks for the most efficient way to protect his client’s rights, which in most cases means compromise with the other party. However, should you need a vigorous defense, he has the experience to represent your case successfully before a court.
