If you are an LGBT couple, it will be natural for you to want to find a gay and lesbian divorce lawyer in Chicago who will be sensitive to your needs. These are some tips for finding the best such lawyer:
Ask LGBT Friends
You can try to find a gay and lesbian divorce lawyer in Chicago through friends in your community. They can point you in the direction of an attorney who is accepting and helpful to people who are in the LGBT community.
Search Online
You can also look for a provider by doing a search on Google. Many people use the Google search engine to find what they need. You can, too.
Sift through the list of providers you find and see if any of them advertise themselves as LGBT divorce attorneys. Some attorneys advertise themselves as such to let people know that they are ready and willing to accept all people as clients. Other providers may not advertise themselves that way or give any information at all as to whether they accept LGBT clients. In those cases, you’ll have to find out by contacting the providers.
Contact Directly
Contact an attorney and schedule a consultation. You’ll learn everything you need to know by showing up for the consultation and talking with the attorney. You’ll be able to sense any resentment, discomfort, and any other negative signs. You’ll know that you have to move on to the next provider if the first one handles you poorly.
