When clients approach the Law Office of Matthew Peterson regarding a cheap uncontested divorce, they often prioritize cost. While it’s true that many attorneys may offer lower prices for these services, opting for the cheapest option can lead to significant pitfalls.
Choosing a cheap uncontested divorce attorney for your uncontested divorce may seem appealing, but it can be a costly mistake. At the Law Office of Matthew Peterson, we emphasize that nothing is more expensive than hiring a cheap lawyer. If you come to us after another uncontested divorce attorney has mishandled your case, the expenses to rectify those mistakes may far exceed what you would have paid initially.
Consider this: if an attorney charges only $300 or $400 for a cheap uncontested divorce, they are likely planning to spend just one to two hours on your case. This limited time frame includes meeting with you, preparing and filing paperwork, and obtaining necessary signatures. However, effective representation requires more thorough engagement to ensure all aspects of your divorce are addressed properly.
Many clients believe their divorces will be straightforward—perhaps because there are no children or minimal assets involved. Yet, unforeseen issues often arise, such as joint debts or complications with property division. An experienced attorney will take the time to explore these potential challenges and provide you with informed options.
At the Law Office of Matthew Peterson, we have encountered numerous uncontested divorces that initially appeared simple but quickly revealed complexities. Issues like one spouse failing to meet their obligations can complicate matters significantly.
Even after we complete your uncontested divorce paperwork, our commitment to you does not end. We remain available to address any concerns that may arise post-divorce and will work collaboratively with both you and your spouse to navigate any unexpected challenges in your agreement.
If you are seeking an uncontested divorce lawyer for an uncontested divorce in Massachusetts and want it handled correctly—regardless of whether it is the cheapest option—contact the Law Office of Matthew Peterson today. Our firm is dedicated to providing compassionate and strategic legal representation tailored to your unique situation, ensuring that your rights and future are protected throughout the process.
