Before the consultation, gather any existing court orders, the most recent two years of tax returns, recent pay stubs, and a list of major assets and debts.
Write a brief, factual summary of your situation: dates, names, and the issues you want to address. A timeline is especially helpful.
List your questions in advance. Common topics include process, timeline, likely cost ranges, and what to expect at each stage.
After the consultation, you will know whether the matter is a fit for the practice, what the next steps would be, and how engagement is structured.
