A divorce can be one of the most tumultuous and trying times in a person’s life, where their future is filled with uncertainty. A divorce brings both complex legal and emotional challenges. The stakes are also very high in divorce cases, where decisions that shape a person’s future – financial and with regard to their relationship with their kids – are left in the hands of a complete stranger. Judges and arbitrators may sign off on dozens of divorces a week, not realizing that the choices they make may be some of the most impactful in the divorcing couple’s life. 

During this trying time, it’s incredibly important to have a knowledgeable, skilled divorce attorney who knows when to fight aggressively and who knows when a gentle approach is more fitting. You need someone with a compassionate ear to guide you through the process and you also need someone who is ready to fight to make sure your best interests are being considered. 

An initial consultation can set the tone and path of your entire divorce proceeding. The first piece of advice you receive will stay in the forefront of your mind going forward. You need representation from someone you can trust, and the benefits you will receive in that initial consultation far outweigh, with the right firm and the right attorney, the costs. Investing in a trustworthy and honest initial consultation will ensure that you are receiving the best that the attorney has to offer, with no strings attached. The Philadelphia divorce lawyers at Cooper Family Law are ready to start fighting for you today.

Real Advice, Not a Sales Pitch

Many lawyers market free initial consultations, but these free consultations often come with strings attached. Nothing in life is ever truly free. The lawyer is offering a small portion of their time for “free”, betting on the fact that they will be compensated for this time when the retainer is signed. Because of this, you won’t be getting the best of their knowledge and experience, you’ll be getting a sales pitch with added pressure on your shoulders because they’ve already so graciously “donated their time”. In the end, many free initial consultations are about as honest as a discount vacation with relentless timeshare presentations with a sales team pressuring you to commit. When you pay for an initial consultation with Cooper Family Law, you are getting a true and honest assessment of your case, not a sales pitch disguised as a half-hearted opinion. 

Reasonable, Fixed Price

Cooper Family Law doesn’t believe in charging exorbitant fees to force you to commit outright. Many competitors require a full hourly rate of the Philadelphia attorney’s time (on average, in 2023, ~$350 an hour). Some even require you to sign a retainer and commit to the entire divorce proceeding before receiving any advice. Our team does things differently. We charge a low, fixed fee of $100 for a full hour of one of our lawyers’ time. You can walk away from that consultation with honest and trustworthy legal advice tailored to your case, with no strings or hidden fees, from an experienced divorce lawyer in Philadelphia.
