How to keep your legal costs down, with family lawyer Ella Hickman
12:14

Carolyn TateHOST
Yeah.H- what's the best way that a woman can prepare for that first meeting, um, to make it as efficient as possible and to get the best advice?
E
12:24Ella HickmanGUEST
So I would say, uh, one of the best things to do, so if it's a parenting matter, um, bring with you copies of any parenting plans or court orders that you've already got.
E
12:32Ella HickmanGUEST
That's really helpful, um, in terms of us working out this is the arrangement that you've already got in place, and then we would always have questions for you around why have you come to see us.
E
12:40Ella HickmanGUEST
Usually people don't come to see a lawyer 'cause things are going particularly well.
E
12:44Ella HickmanGUEST
There's something that's gone a bit awry, so we wanna say, "Okay, why now? Why, what do you want some, why do you need some advice now?" Um, but definitely for parenting, I would turn your minds to, uh, what you've, is already in place and where you would like it to be.

Carolyn TateHOST
