Flat-Fee Divorce is Not for Every Case!

Flat fee divorce is not for every case. Some highly complex cases simply cannot anticipate all of the twists and turns of the litigation. Also, high conflict cases may not work well under the flat fee arrangement, as often times one spouse may try to drive up the legal bills by forcing the other spouse to make unnecessary court appearances.

However, cases that include some complex issues, such as property division, pensions and Qualified Domestic Relations Orders are appropriate for flat fee arrangements and should lead to less expensive divorces for clients and fewer fee disputes between Staten Island divorce lawyers and their clients. Flat fee divorce is another approach to divorce litigation that attempts to provide competent legal services to clients at an affordable price, by having the client feel the economic consequences of the litigation decisions at the time the litigation decision is made.
