I felt very blessed in my choice of a good divorce lawyer, and I also felt blessed in how the decision came about. I did not know of anyone personally, and Googling recommendations were really difficult when you’re just going by the reviews. Different women’s experiences were different all over. When I was talking to a coworker about this difficult decision, she said, "Why don’t you try mine? I had to get one for my sister last year and felt that he was really good."
She gave me a few more facts about where he worked, and I decided to go get a free consultation. After the consultation, I felt really good about him and his firm. It was a firm that pretty much represented men, but he assured me he would represent me and protect me the same as them, plus it gave me an edge that they knew so much about the men’s side of things. When I got back to the office and told my coworker about this lawyer and my decision, she said, "Oh good! I taught him piano when he was young, he grew up in my neighborhood." I had no idea that this relationship existed, and she purposely didn’t tell me so I wouldn’t be swayed by that personal note. My lawyer ended up being a bulldog, and protected me every inch of the way. I felt led by God to choose him and through him He contended against my enemies. I don't feel like divorces have to be treated as enemies, but in my case and circumstances, we had to defend and protect.
