What is one of the most important questions a Family Law Solicitor must ask you?
Answer: What do you want to be doing in the next 2-5 years, 5-10 years?
Why is this so important for you?
Answer: This enables the solicitor, if they have financial planning expertise, to understand your wishes and what assets/property/superannuation you should be asking for in a property settlement. Getting this mix right will make a huge difference as to whether or not you will achieve your wishes.
A solicitor can ensure you get a property settlement but having knowledge of finances will get you the best result for you.
