How to Hire a Divorce Lawyer

You may have made the decision to separate from your spouse or you may simply be looking for information on your rights and obligations if you get a divorce. However, now you are facing the sometimes daunting task to find and hire a divorce lawyer.

There are several reasonable ways to find and hire a divorce lawyer. Irrespective of which way you choose, always make sure to properly research any lawyer you consult with.

One of the most common ways to find and hire a divorce lawyer is to obtain a referral from a trusted friend or colleague who has already gone through the process. When you take this route, you have the benefit of getting an opinion from someone you know and trust. This may save you a lot of future complications and may also save you the time and energy it takes to find and hire a divorce lawyer.

Another way to find and hire a divorce lawyer these days is to do an internet search for a divorce lawyer in your region. You can do a simple Google search, or you can also use specific websites such as Lawyer Ratingz to assist you to find and hire a divorce lawyer. These sites are helpful because you can find a lawyer in your geographic region and you can read reviews from former clients of the lawyer you choose. Of course, whenever you are hiring any professional, you should always do your own research into that person, and this is also true when it comes to internet referrals.

Finally, the Law Society of Upper Canada has a lawyer referral service. You can call the Law Society and they will refer you to a lawyer in your area that practices family and divorce law. In addition, the lawyers referred by the law society will provide you with a free half hour consultation with respect to your case.
