Q: Contact During the Divorce Process
During the divorce process, if a lawyer is involved, does the filer need to contact the other person, or can the filer give all the contact info to the attorney and they do the hunt downs and such, contacting any family member if needed to find the person (out of state) and get the needed info?
A: Not sure what you are asking. When you say 'filer' who are you referring to? And when you say 'lawyer involved' do you mean your lawyer or your spouses lawyer? You can have what ever arrangement you want with an attorney but the best way to get divorced is to pay a flat rate fee of $395 and let your attorney handel everything.
