Importance of showing up to court dates

When there is a pending divorce or family law matter, many parties worry about upcoming court dates.  It can be hard for many to get off work.  Some might be embarrassed to be seen in court.  Others might think that since they have an attorney, the attorney can handle it for them.  Every situation is different and it's vital to discuss this with your lawyer.  However, this episode talks about the importance of showing up to court when there is any doubt whatsoever.  When a party doesn't show up to court, all kinds of bad things can happen.  The judge can also feel as if the case is not a priority.  This episode is based on an article on Family Law Headquarters titled: Should I Show Up to Court?  You can also find out more about our Midwest Family Lawyers in Tulsa, Oklahoma and elsewhere by calling 855-805-0595. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/family-law-talk--6410781/support.
