The engagement process typically begins with an initial consultation. This consultation may take place over the telephone, but more often in person. During this meeting, we will listen to your concerns and obtain necessary details about your family law matter. We will then assess how best to assist you, either as your mediator or attorney. The initial consultation is the perfect opportunity for potential clients to ask a number of questions, and, most importantly, to determine if the pairing of our team is desirable. Common questions presented during the initial consultation include the cost, time and process involved in resolving your family law matter. Once the mutual agreement has been made to work together, we will begin our professional relationship.

The final steps in securing your relationship with a lawyer or mediator at Kellem✶Mahoney Family Law & Mediation Group, P.C. are the review and signing of an Engagement Letter and the payment of a retainer for services. Once clients are “on board,” we will open a physical file for your matter, input your information into our state-of-the-art family law software programs and begin the process of helping you reach resolution – either through mediation or litigation. Although we have handled countless family law matters, each situation is unique.
