Where to Find a North Dakota Divorce Attorney with Child Custody Experience

Divorce is seldom easy. Especially when children are involved. As you consider the best interests of your children and seek to protect your rights and interests, it is important to hire an experienced divorce lawyer with a child custody background. There are several places you can look to find such an attorney:

People you know
Friends and family are a great resource. Chances are, someone you know has been through a divorce—or knows someone who has been through a divorce—and can tell you about his or her experience with their lawyer. Use the information you glean from family and friends to come up with a list of potential candidates.  Make sure you find out if the lawyers you hear about are not only skilled divorce lawyers, but have child custody and child support experience.

The State Bar Association
The state bar association is the licensing agency for attorneys in North Dakota. The bar association maintains a list of attorneys who are eligible to practice in the state. You may be able to find attorneys listed by practice area here. You can contact individual attorneys later to learn more about their practice and what their experience is with divorce, child custody and child support.

Online Attorney Directories
Online attorney directories, like www.AllLaw.com, are a great place to turn to find divorce attorneys with child custody experience. At www.AllLaw.com, you can not only find a number of attorneys who may be able to help you through your divorce, but you can easily access each attorney’s Web site so you can easily learn more about the attorneys you are considering and compare candidates based on your needs.

Once you’ve generated a solid list of potential candidates through the above resources, start comparing the attorneys on your list. Consider your needs and expectations and look for an attorney who has the experience, background and skill to adequately handle your matter. It is important to meet with several attorneys before you make a final decision about who you want to represent you. Remember, you will likely be working closely with this individual for quite some time. Don’t underestimate the importance of a strong rapport.
