Meeting with Ms. McDonald
Confidential Consultation:
A confidential consultation can be scheduled by calling The McDonald Law Office at (828) 350-8742.
During your confidential consultation with Ms. McDonald, she will take the time to understand your situation, your needs and your goals. By focusing on your desired outcome, she will tailor a strategy to meet your needs and help you through your legal matter in a way that is best for you and your family.
So that you can plan accordingly, most consultations last about an hour but are not limited to an hour of time. You are encouraged to take the time you need to be sure all your questions are answered and that you understand the various options available to you.
Get Organized:
Write down questions that you want to discuss with Ms. McDonald.
It will be helpful for you to gather certain documents in preparation for your first meeting with Ms. McDonald. Locate and copy your important documents, including:
- Financial statements
- Income tax returns
- Corporate tax returns
- Partnership tax returns
- Bank statements (business and personal)
- Check registers
- Canceled checks
- Brokerage statements
- Retirement account statements
- Children’s bank account statements
In a contested equitable distribution case, these documents will be very helpful in determining just what your family’s assets are. In a child support or alimony case, they will help to determine the amount of support you will pay or receive.
Be Thorough:
Tell Ms. McDonald all of the facts. The information you share with Diane will be kept in confidence. In order to represent you best, it is very important that she know as much as possible about your matter to avoid surprises during the course of the representation.
