VerifiedHello. My name is ***** ***** I'm an attorney on this site, with over 20 years of experience. I have licenses in Texas and Tennessee. I have been licensed in Alabama as well. I have also been admitted to practice in Federal Court, in the Eastern District of Tennessee.
Please allow me a little time to carefully review your question and possibly research it, if necessary. In the meantime, please take a look at this:
In order to help you understand the kind of service that I am able to provide on JustAnswer, please note the following:
1- We lawyers are allowed to provide general information only, such as providing descriptions of general principles of law, and shall not provide legal advice.
2- I am not allowed to form attorney-client relationships on the Platform. You will need to consult and possibly retain an attorney in your local jurisdiction if you wish to take any legal action through an attorney.
3- I am not permitted to propose a specific course of action. Instead, I will suggest options for you regarding your legal issue. My intention is to provide you with good and relevant information so that you feel equipped to deal with your issue.
As I understand your question, you want to know if there is any good reason to pay another attorney at this time in your divorce proceeding. That's a good question.
Good morning! It appears that you don't have any questions at this time. I wish you the best and if you do end up having another question regarding this issue, you can come back to this chat and ask. If you have a new question, please open it as a new question. If you like, you can request me by putting @AnastaciaEsq at the beginning of your new question. You can also add me to your Favorite Expert list by clicking on the heart you should see in your My Questions page.
Also, I just want to let you know that there are 150+ categories here at JustAnswer and JustAnswer can also be a second opinion resource to confirm guidance from your local mechanic, plumber, attorney, doctor, veterinarian etc.
