Problems With Aggressive Divorce Lawyers in Arizona

Posted on : July 3, 2017, By: Chris Hildebrand

Some clients are looking for aggressive divorce lawyers in Arizona. For those that are looking for an aggressive divorce lawyer in Arizona, we hope you rethink the situation because you may want to consider the consequences of that decision. We are going to talk to you about problems with aggressive divorce lawyers in Arizona.

Divorce is understandably a very emotional time for everyone involved. The last person you need to be in such an emotionally aggressive position is the attorney who is getting you through your divorce. Instead, you should be looking for tips on hiring the best divorce attorney for your case.

If you were thinking of hiring an aggressive divorce attorney, you probably did so because you want to win your case. So, let me ask you this . . . do you think you have a better chance of winning your case with a wildly out of control and combative divorce lawyer or a team of skilled professionals carefully planning each phase of your divorce and skillfully executing that plan on your behalf?

We had received telephone calls from individuals who had asked to speak to an aggressive divorce attorney at our Firm when, in fact, they were not looking for an aggressive divorce attorney at all and were trying to weed out divorce lawyers who were willing to say they are aggressive.

Time after time, when we are done explaining the damage such an aggressive divorce lawyer can cause in an Arizona divorce, we hear that we were the first after a dozen of phone calls with other divorce attorneys who did not immediately agree to take an aggressive and ruthless path on the client’s case.

Overly Aggressive Divorce Lawyers in Arizona are Costly

The one thing an aggressive divorce lawyer in Arizona can promise you is that he or she will damage or destroy many close relationships you have with your children and family. That destruction will significantly extend the time it will take for you to complete your divorce.

It will increase your anxiety, it will cost you a tremendous amount more in attorney fees and costs, and it will provide a worse result in your divorce case. After pocketing a lot more of your money, the aggressive divorce attorney in Arizona will move on with his or her own life; leaving you to try to rebuild a life the chaos left behind. You need to know how to deal with an aggressive divorce lawyer.

An experienced and knowledgeable divorce attorney, on the other hand, will act more like a surgeon than a “junkyard dog” and in doing so will save you time, money, and meaningful relationships that, although may be damaged at the time, will not continue to increase in intensity.

When it comes to civil/family law matters that needs to be resolved in the... court , I highly recommend Hildebrand Law Firm. In my case an international abduction of a minor was involved - a very sensitive and risky topic. They handle everything very professionally, and we won the case due to their experience and expertise in State Law / Federal Law & international Law (Hague Convention). They are great, in every aspect and I highly suggest Hilderbrand Law Firm for a matter as such.K.I.read more

Their level of knowledge and expertise inspired confidence from the initial... consultation, where they clearly outlined the possibilities along with the potential costs of each.Both Carlos Noel, our attorney and his para-legal, Lindsey Duran, were available to answer questions and guide us through the process. Their attention and care greatly increased our comfort level, as everything had to be done virtually, due to COVID-19.Communications with the other side were strategic and effective, undoubtedly saving both time and money.We were very pleased with the final outcome and would not hesitate to use the firm again or recommend them to others.

I hired Michael Clancy just when I was about to give up on an existing... post-decree case which I started with a different attorney over a year ago. Michael is knowledgeable, upfront and personable; he gave me the confidence to continue and settle my post decree case. I knew he was secure, capable and could handle my case and represent me well. He did everything he could to ensure a great outcome for the modification of my current court orders to help my son have a more stable mental, social and physical well-being, which to me is priceless! I would highly recommend him to anyone who wants to be in the best possible hands during one of the most stressful events that could happen to any parent that wants the best for their child/children. Thank you Michael for fighting for my son's safety!! Also, his paralegal, Alison, was awesome and very helpful!read more

I first should comment on how I found this law firm. I am an attorney myself,... though never licensed in Arizona. I moved to Arizona to rejoin my wife and son, who had moved out to Arizona ahead of me. Things soured. I don't know why, but they did.There was a particular issue for me with inherited property. I did some basic Internet research, and Hildebrand's name kept coming up as the author of scholarly articles on the issue concerning me. I asked that Hildebrand be assigned to my case. This was not possible, but his second in command, Mr. Micuda, took over, and Mr. Micuda knows his business.The initial scheduled 1 hour meeting ran for an hour and 45 minutes, and facts, law, and strategy were fully discussed. Throughout the case, everything was explained to me clearly, both verbally and in writing.Proceedings went forward without delay. Because I had selected one of the most prominent Domestic Relations firms in town, there was no serious opposition. This ended up being an essentially co-operative divorce between the two sides, the reasoning being to conserve assets rather than enrich lawyers.Through a series of 3 or 4 payments, I put up about $10,000 for fees and costs. I found the Hildebrand law firm's billings to be fair. They billed for work done; no padding. I am getting about 25% of what I paid in back, as a refund.The matter was done in about 6 months: divorce, agreed property settlement, agreed support provisions as to my son. My matters were handled by an attorney and paralegal team, and handled efficiently.Mine was not a "big" case in terms of its economic value to anyone, but I did not feel like a second or third class citizen; I was treated with the same respect, even though the dispute was over a condo, as opposed to, say, a Scottsdale mansion with land.This may sound strange, but i was actually somewhat sorry that the matter had to come to a conclusion. I felt that I had been treated like a friend, not just an anonymous customer. Being a practical man, I realize it's down to sending a Christmas or other seasonal card.As I said at the outset, I found this place by dint of my own research. I feel I am a lucky man that I did.read more
