S9 Ep93: Should I Fire My Custody Attorney & Hire a New One?

#ChooseGoldman Deciding to switch lawyers during a custody battle is a major move that can impact your case's cost and how the judge sees you. Attorney Akiva Goldman explains that Michigan courts favor parental involvement and stability, so a difficult ruling is often due to the facts of the case rather than your attorney's performance. • Custody cases are long-term engagements and "battles" where both sides will face minor setbacks. • Switching lawyers mid-case requires paying a new firm to "reinvent the wheel" and learn your entire history. • Judges often view frequent changes in legal representation as a sign of instability in a parent. • An attorney inherits the facts of your life; they cannot change realities like open CPS cases or existing court rules. • Valid reasons to switch include clear performance failures, such as an attorney missing a hearing and causing a default. 📞 (248) 590-6600 Call/Text 📅 For a Complimentary Phone Case Evaluation: https://app.acuityscheduling.com/schedule.php?owner=17105687&appointmentType=18529428 Click here to watch the video: https://youtu.be/R-XnGZGgXvE For more information: https://akivagoldman.com/michigan-child-custody-lawyer ⬇️ Download Divorce & Custody Survival Guide.
