NEED FOR VITAL PERSONAL INFORMATION
Your attorney will need to know an astounding amount of
very personal information
about you, your family, your finances and your relationships.
Be prepared to discuss some extremely personal and
possibly intimate details with your attorney. For instance, it may be necessary
for your attorney or a paralegal to ask the date of your last marital relations
with your spouse in order to determine a "separation date". The
honesty and frankness of your answer may be very important to your case. In addition to
being totally honest and forthcoming when discussing your situation with your
attorney, you need to also be straight-forward with him or her if
domestic violence is an issue in your
marriage.
The questions in the Divorce Datapack are not intended for purposes of prying
into your personal business. They are essential to the litigation of your case. |
