Many people select their divorce lawyers through referrals by friends.
Call the county bar association to get a list of lawyers who practice family law. Ask attorneys in other specialties you know and trust for a referral. Seek an attorney who belongs to the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers . To become a member at least 75 percent of an attorney's practice must be family law for ten years. If you cannot afford to hire a member, then ask for a referral from an Academy lawyer.
