• You will immediately gain our experience and knowledge when you hire our firm and allow us to act on your behalf.

Lake Norman Family Law FAQ

• How much does a family lawyer cost? The cost to hire a family lawyer will vary from case to case. Typically, the more involved an attorney must be to handle the case, the higher the cost of hiring them will be. At Blood Law, PLLC, we strive to keep our legal fees competitive and will give you a clear assessment of costs before you sign an attorney agreement.
• Are family law cases public record in North Carolina? Most family law records are public records in North Carolina. Some are free of charge to access, and others can be accessed for a small fee. If your family law case can be resolved out of court and in private mediation, though, then much of the details of the case can be kept confidential.
• What should I expect during my initial consultation? During an initial consultation, our family law team will want to get a feel for the situation you are facing to decide if we are a good fit for the case. We can do this by reviewing any initial information that you provide and going over a few important questions with you. We have competitively low consultation fees, too, so you can see if we’re the law firm that you want to work on your case without worry.
• What documents should I bring to my initial consultation? You should bring any specific information to your initial consultation that you think could be relevant to the current or pending family law case. For example, if you are filing for spousal support, then you can bring a copy of an overall bank statement that shows your financial situation and why support will be necessary.
