If you are seeking a divorce in Orange County, California and are meeting with your attorney for the first time there are several types of information you need to prepare. Most likely your attorney will have a form for you to fill out and will oftentimes go through it with you. However, the purpose of this article is to give you advance warning of the types of documentation and information you’ll need during your client consultation. I have also included a link to a Judicial Council Form provided by the Superior Court of Orange County that many attorneys use.
The type of information you’ll need to bring includes but isn’t necessarily limited to:
1. Personal: All social security numbers, and dates of: (1) birth, (2) marriage, and (3) separation;
2. Property: Residence- lease or own (lease amount). If owner: value of home; mortgage payment, source of purchase funds, source of mortgage payments. Other Real Property. Life Insurance. Furniture
3. Obligations: debts- including date incurred, purpose, due date, and terms of repayment.
4. income: here you include your employer, your spouse’s employer, type of occupation amount of monthly income, your withholdings, and if you currently are unemployed make sure you include an explanation of why, and lastly include the number of exemptions.
5. Liquid assets: Cash, stocks, bonds, checking accounts, life insurance.
6. Monthly expenses: there is still laundry list of information contained in this section which you can access at the link below. Make sure you visit this and view the list as it contains many items.
Having this information at your disposal and using the linked form will save you time and money. The more information you have prepared and organized the less time your attorney will need to compile it and prepare your case.
