newbie looking for good Lawyer in N. VA
#1938 - 03/02/06 03:10 PM (199.45.47.4)

My wife and I have decided to call it quits after 4 years of marriage. We have 1 adopted child and she 1 from a previous marriage. We have come to terms on our own. Do I need a Lawyer, if only to look over the paperwork? My wife used her first divorce papers as a template. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Congratulations on working it out on your own. When there's a child involved a divorce cannot be simple.

You should have a lawyer look it over. It is worth the expense. This lawyer should represent you alone; not the both of you.

If she also wants to have a lawyer look it over, she should get her own.

You should definetly speak to a lawyer as divorce responsibilities last a long time and many things can change. Money changes everyone. I speak from personal experiance. My ex and I were still very good friends after the divorce, but she continued to demand more and more feeling that she was entitled to it. At the time I had no idea I was signing off on things I didnt have to and now regret the amount of money I spend a month..somewhere in the neighborhood of 1500 dollars.
