In most cases, the final terms of a divorce agreement or judgment have longterm and often permanent consequences that profoundly impact the quality of an individual's life. Therefore, before a divorce becomes final, it is beneficial to have an independent and knowledgeable attorney review the terms of a potential settlement and analyze options. Typical reasons for a second opinion include:
- confirmation regarding the terms of potential resolution
- obtain a detached independent perspective of your case and potential alternatives to resolution
- the need for clarity because of limited or poor communications with current counsel
- litigant feels there is a lack of clarity or understanding regarding an issue or his/her rights under divorce laws
- concern regarding the direction of your case
- confusion regarding the divorce process
Attorney Mavrides provides confidential second opinions by reviewing and analyzing a case at any stage in the family law process. In many circumstances, this second opinion can be completed for a flat fee rate. If you would like Attorney Mavrides to review your case with you, please contact her office to schedule a confidential appointment.
LAR or Limited Assistance Representation
Limited Assistance Representation allows an attorney to assist a person who cannot afford to hire the attorney for the entire case. This means the client can pay the attorney to represent him or her for a specific hearing only, such as temporary orders or a specific hearing. After that appearance in court, the attorney is no longer on the case and the litigant continues to represent him or herself. In appropriate cases, this saves money you would be spending on legal fees, while providing you with the legal protection you need at different stages of the legal matter. In many circumstances, the more simplified cases can lead to quicker resolution.
