If you are facing a divorce and have little money with you, don’t worry! You can still manage a Florida cheap divorce. Trust me, without a lawyer you stand very little chance of winning the case, this is especially true if your soon to be ex-husband has hired the top legal attorney.
Follow the tips mentioned below to go through a Florida cheap divorce.
1. I am sure you are not aware of this because most lawyers won’t tell you this. You can actually file a motion and ask your spouse to take care of all your legal bills. This is a very handy option if you are low on money and your spouse is a breadwinner. Although, most of the lawyers will want to get their retainers from their clients. The procedure of petitioning the court and getting funds from them is a bit tedious and time consuming. Make sure you talk to the lawyer and discuss your budget with them. They should be willing to filing a petition to get their money.
2. Try to borrow some money from your relatives and loved ones. Try to gather as many assets as possible. If that still does not work, try pleading your case to the lawyers. Discuss your problems with them, and see if they are willing to represent you without a retainer. However, if there are marital assets that could be divided once the divorce is finalized, you can ask your lawyer to represent you know and collect his fees later.
3. Another option as a last resort would be to ask your lawyer to represent you as a pro bono. This means without any fee. Although difficult, this could work if you are on the verge of losing your kids. After all, lawyers are humans too. You never know which one of them lends a helping hand to you.
