The Holmes and Rahe Stress Scale is a strong psychological tool used to diagnose a person’s stress levels. Unsurprisingly, the death of a spouse is the highest-rated stressor, and divorce is the second-highest stressor in existence. Therefore, there is clinical evidence that proves what we’ve known all along: divorces are painful and difficult.
Thankfully, you don’t have to go through the process alone. An experienced Dayton divorce attorney is ready to assist you in this treacherous journey. However, if you’re unsure about hiring an attorney for your case, here are common reasons people hire representation during contested divorces.
Representation Could Impact Outcomes
The main goal of hiring a divorce attorney is to impact the outcome of the process. Knowledgeable divorce attorneys can help judges understand the circumstances of past familial relationships, helping them make the best decisions for all parties involved.
Without an attorney, securing a fair and just outcome is nearly impossible, especially if your spouse hired an attorney. Therefore, if you want your voice heard throughout the proceedings and to have a say in your outcome, representation may be the best choice to accomplish this goal.
