  • Who pays?

    If one spouse is making a higher amount than the other who is unemployed, should they pay for both lawyers before divorcce mediation? And if it's a simple case (no custody issues etc) is it ok to use a cheaper lawyer?

    Everyone must pay for their own lawyer. A lawyer cannot represent you if they are being paid by your 'opposition'.

    You have to decide if your chosen lawyer has enough experience/knowledge/skill/bandwidth to do the job you need done. Plus of course, personal compatibility.
