You have scheduled your Initial Consultation with one of our attorneys, what should you expect at your appointment?  Please plan to block out at least an hour and a half for this appointment. On average this is how long a consultation should last with one of our attorneys.  If you are unable to keep your appointment for any reason, please call the office to either cancel or reschedule. Cindy and Chris are happy to help you with this. Also, expect us to call the day before the appointment to confirm the time and that you have directions to our office.

When you arrive to our office either Chris or Cindy will greet you.  She will get you settled in one of our conference rooms.  Once you are seated, she will go over our Client Intake Form with you.  This form gives our office information such as addresses, phone numbers, email addresses, and dates of birth.  After the intake form is complete, she will process the payment for the appointment and ask if you have brought any documents with you that you would like your attorney to review.  If you do, she will make copies of the documents for the attorney’s review.

Chris or Cindy will then bring your file to the assigned attorney, who will review your file briefly before coming in to meet with you.  During the meeting with either Ms. Frye or Ms. Bruce, they will go into greater detail of your situation and what your goals are.  After the consultation, you will receive a business card with the attorney that you have met.  If you have a question a few days after your appointment, our attorneys are happy to answer them via email at no additional charge.

At Frye Law Offices, we pride ourselves on having an amazing support staff. Clients have always told us that our staff has been professional, empathetic, and effective. From the first moment you contact our firm, you will find the knowledge, experience and personal attention at the time when you need it most. Please call us at 919.846.8807.

Time Magazine recently published an article entitled, “Facebook and Divorce: Airing the Dirty Laundry” which is an excellent article that I recommend to anyone divorcing or considering divorce. Remember that everything  you post wills stay on the web, which is why I suggest you be careful about what you post even when you are considering a separation. Recently, our firm has used MySpace pictures in a custody trial to demonstrate that “devoted mom” was actually a party animal who left her child with babysitters. Along with this evidence and other items, our client was able to go from being a weekend dad to being an equal caretaker of his daughter.
