A Divorce Lawyer’s Top Tips to Save on Attorney Fees with Joy Rosenthal on The Divorce and Beyond...

This week, Susan Guthrie welcomes attorney Joy Rosenthal to the Divorce & Beyond podcast. Joy shares how you can save money on attorney fees in your divorce.  One of the most expensive things about divorce is the lawyers, so this episode is worth its weight in gold! 



Compassionate Attorney, Divorce Mediator, and Family Law Educator Joy Rosenthal joins Susan for a topic that will be a popular one - how to save money on divorce attorney fees! Together they get to the heart of what you can do to reduce the high costs of hiring and working with an attorney during your divorce. 



Joy S. Rosenthal, Esq. founded Rosenthal Law & Mediation in 2006 to help New York City families with divorce mediation and collaborative law.  Joy teaches family law at the City University of New York School of Law and developed Landing On Your Feet - A Compassionate Lawyer's Guide to Divorce for people experiencing divorce.  



Topics and Golden Nuggets include:


• Joy answers the question, “Are divorce attorneys outrageously expensive?”


• “The more contentious the divorce, the more expensive it will be.” 


• Look forward, not back, and don’t focus on blame. Focus on the priorities of divorce and your beyond.


• The various choices you can make about the process of divorce - mediation as opposed to litigation, for example


• Selecting the right attorney: Questions to ask about attorney rates and fees 


• How hiring and working with other support professionals like a therapist can help reduce your overall costs

With Soberlink, judges rest assured that your child is safe, attorneys get court-admissible evidence of sobriety, and both parents have empowerment and peace of mind.
