Trust An Attorney Who Can Help You Move Forward
The hurricane of emotions that comes with ending a marriage in Florida can make it difficult for even the most rational of thinkers to make the right decisions. Sometimes, it can be hard to look beyond right now and consider how your decisions will affect the future for you and your family. Having a knowledgeable and empathetic divorce attorney is the best way to get through the process with no regrets once the emotional pain subsides.
Julie Beth Jouben, P.A., has a team of people who want to make sure that you make decisions that are right for you, both today and tomorrow.
What You Can Expect When Working With Us
No one can help you unless they first get to know you, understand your situation and carefully determine what you would like to happen in the future. A competent divorce attorney will make it a priority to listen to you carefully before giving you any advice.
Each couple is in a different situation and needs to go about this process in a way that will align with their future goals. It may be painful to reflect on your past choices and sort out the consequences, but doing so will help you move forward with your life.
If you are sure that you and your spouse are ready to dissolve your marriage ties, we recommend that you prepare for a consultation with your divorce attorney by keeping the following in mind. Read on to find out how to prepare for your visit so that we can understand you and make your first consultation as efficient as possible.
Have A Good Grasp Of Your Situation
Think about your situation and jot down a few notes about important details that you would like to share with your divorce attorney. Sometimes, it is hard to remember everything during a conversation, and most of our clients find that having notes on-hand allows them to present their case more clearly. We also recommend doing some visualizing to understand what you would like from the settlement, how you would like to split assets, and where you plan to live once the dissolution is finalized. Having a clear mental picture of what you want for your future is the best road map for getting there.
Do An Unofficial Asset Assessment
Conducting a quick, unofficial asset assessment of your property will go a long way for our first meeting. Doing so will help your divorce attorney to understand your situation, and you will have a clearer picture of where you stand. We do not ask you to get exact property appraisals and investment information, just a general overview of what will need to be assessed and divided during the process. This is beneficial information that will allow us to make the most of our consultation time together.
Consider Your Children
If there are children involved, make them a priority. Separating from children is the most challenging aspect of marriage dissolution, but facing reality cannot be avoided. Your child’s future in Clearwater must take precedence over your desires. Try to think about the kids from their perspective, not just your own, and decide on what will be fair for them, you, and your soon-to-be ex-spouse. The more realistic you are, the better your divorce attorney will be able to help you get what you want without further disappointment and emotional pain. Remember, also, that Clearwater judges are looking out for the best interest of your child and will rule on your case accordingly.
