Divorce lawyer Gilbert AZ: What is the first step to getting a divorce?

Do you have any questions? What is the process?
We have a limited focus – helping you get to your “next best foundation”. You will have a lot of questions about divorce. The process can be tough and convoluted. Lucky for you, The Harding Firm has answers. The Harding Firm process entails you giving the office a call and talking to an Intake Specialist. You will be asked some basic information about you and your spouse, including information about the children, houses, cars, retirement, and other assets. Then, you will get an appointment to see the attorney.
Is paperwork important?
In the interim, you will have paperwork to fill out. The paperwork is not for The Harding Firm’s benefit – it is for yours. The divorce process can be overwhelming, so the paperwork asks you questions like, “What is most important to you?” and “Is there anything else you want the attorney to know?” This is an important step because when you have your free consultation, after the first couple of questions, you will likely forget some of the other questions that you did not write down.
The attorney will review your information with the Intake Specialist, review your form, and be ready to have an informed conversation with you, about your specific case. If, at the end of the consultation, you agree with the attorney’s plan for your case, a fee agreement will be signed, payment received, and we will get started. If you need to think about it, your quote for services will remain valid for 90 days. The divorce process is difficult and you will want to go through it with someone who is knowledgeable and willing to advocate for you. “Choices change lives. Choose wisely.” ~Kina Harding
