    Hired Attorney Blake H. Larsen 2024
    After multiple consultations with attorneys who were obsessed with the prospect of litigation, Blake was the only attorney who gave me an incredibly honest and realistic view of litigation and broke down the costs for me (all within a single consultation call). He thoroughly advised me on the best solutions/outcomes for my particular case and with his expertise, I was able to negotiate and create a separation agreement that was amenable to my ex spouse. He not only saved me from unnecessary financial burden, but a heavy emotional burden as well that comes with litigating. It is neither a cliche nor an exaggeration to say that Blake changed and impacted my life for the better.

    I can't recommend Blake and Heather and the team at Raleigh Divorce Law Firm enough -- they helped me through a very difficult period in my life with the upmost tact and professionalism. I was nervous at first when I was shopping for a lawyer -- I had heard of attorneys who drag on cases so that they can make the most money off of their clients. However, what I experienced at Raleigh Divorce Law Firm was completely the opposite. You can trust Blake to look out for you and your family's best interest and to achieve the best resolution possible. Thank you again!

    Hired Attorney Heather W. Forshey 2021-2022
    Recommends this Attorney
    Heather and her experienced team were the abosolute best people to have in my corner during my extremely difficult and complicated divorce. Throughout this process I needed for things to be explained in detail and there were several times where I just needed to be calmed down. Heather and her team stepped up and talked me off of the ledge each and every time with nothing but care and kindness. Having a knowledgeable, experienced and down right "don't take no BS" team fighting FOR me is something that gave me peace, strength and a sense of calm/comfort. Having Heather and her team on my side and defending me is something that I'll never forget. Finding a lawyer for my divorce was one of the hardest decisions to make during a very emotional time. Deciding to have Heather represent me is something that I'll never regret and one of the best decisions that I made during this process. Her and her team always put what was best for me first and fought for me in each and every situation.

    There is no such thing as a "good" or "enjoyable" divorce, but Jennifer Sinclair and her team certainly made it efficient. They provided excellent advice, diligently managed the paperwork throughout the process, and were very responsive to any inquiries. I would definitely recommend their services.

How do I choose a lawyer?

Consider the following:

  • Comfort Level – Are you comfortable telling the lawyer personal information? Does the lawyer seem interested in solving your problem?
  • Credentials – How long has the lawyer been in practice? Has the lawyer worked on other cases similar to yours?
  • Cost – How are the lawyer's fees structured — hourly or flat fee? Can the lawyer estimate the cost of your case?
  • City – Is the lawyer's office conveniently located?

Not sure what questions to ask a lawyer?

Here are a few to get you started:

  • How long have you been in practice?
  • How many cases like mine have you handled?
  • How often do you settle cases out of court?
  • What are your fees and costs?
  • What are the next steps?

Want to check lawyer discipline?

It is always a good idea to research your lawyer prior to hiring. Every state has a disciplinary organization that monitors attorneys, their licenses, and consumer complaints. By researching lawyer discipline you can:

  • Ensure the attorney is currently licensed to practice in your state
  • Gain an understanding of his or her historical disciplinary record, if any.
  • Determine the seriousness of complaints/issues which could range from late bar fees to more serious issues requiring disciplinary action.
