How Does It Work?
Preparation
Knowing the applicable law and having the relevant evidence available are two crucial steps to obtaining an ideal result. The time involved in a hearing or a negotiation is so relatively short compared to the length of the case that you would be foolish to go in unprepared, yet many do. Being prepared doesn’t just mean having what’s needed to argue your case. It also requires you to be prepared to argue against the anticipated position of the other lawyer.
Planning
Once you have an understanding of how the law will be applied to your case and have helped in the development of our strategy, a work plan must be set down to ensure we have all the evidence we need to win our case in settlement or trial. Essentially, if we end up at trial in your case, we’ll need to prove to the judge the existence of a number of facts, such as the value of assets, the parenting ability and history each parent has played, the income of the parties for the purpose of support, and either party’s greater ability to pay attorney fees.
Unique, Ethical Approach
We take the practice of law very seriously. It’s not just a job or a single case. It’s a career and a life’s mission. While we are effectively aggressive and will zealously advocate our position, we don’t do so by breaking the rules. Forfeiting credibility with the individuals with whom we go up against and the individuals who decide our cases would ultimately be a detriment to our clients. Instead, we take the high road and we take it always. Judges and opposing counsels alike know our firm as one of integrity and credibility and you will too, or you won’t be our client.
Why Choose Turco Law Firm
Divorce is, most commonly, an unavoidably stressful life event. At Turco Legal our approach to the practice of family law is to be prepared but pragmatic. Thorough and comprehensive but with every step having a meaningful purpose. Our job is to shepherd you through the emotional turmoil and get you the outcome to which you are entitled.
Our Philosophy And Approach
You Are Our Priority
Regardless of the feelings you currently have about your spouse, the objective of divorce is to conclude the process with the best possible result for you and your children. And, your chances of getting the best result improve when we work together to devise a case strategy. One size simply doesn’t fit all in divorce and that makes perfect sense. The probate and family judges can exercise incredible discretion and every case has its own set of facts and circumstances. You need to be part of case strategy development because you and your spouse know the facts better than I, your spouse’s lawyer or the judge ever will. Spending time, particularly early in the process, developing a case strategy is time well spent.
