To
Have or Have Not:
Why Do I Need a Lawyer
Many people
have e-mailed me asking if
they need a lawyer to handle
their divorce.
"We
agree on everything," e-mails
often say, "why do I need
a lawyer?"
I have two thoughts on this:
First, all
language used in legal documents
has a certain meaning -- and
that meaning might change, depending
on how courts are interpreting
statutes and other things, such
as changes in the law.
It is very
good if two divorcing people
can reach an agreement as to
TERMS, but each should have an
attorney to draft or review documents
so that they can be sure the
documents are in proper form
and actually say what the parties
have agreed.
Also, there
are local nuances for the
filling of divorces as well as
require-
ments for the recording of deeds
and other related issues.
