WHY USE A CUSTODY TRIAL CONSULTANT?*

The majority of divorces that involve custody related issues are eventually settled out of court. These include custody cases that are contested by one or both parties. However, a small percentage of custody disputes - about four (4) percent of cases - will proceed to a custody trial. When a custody trial appears inevitable, this calls for a completely different approach to custody litigation. Instead of focusing on a custody settlement between the parties, it changes to building a custody case that will be heard by a judge (and jury, in some cases).

CustodyTrialConsultants.com specializes in all aspects of trial preparation and case management. It also provides the much needed back-up that busy divorce trial attorneys desparately need. Our PRIMARY OBJECTIVE is to clients and their attorneys build a case that will be heard, understood and believed by both judge and jury. Custody trial consultants provide attorneys the ammunition they need to present a winning case.

What Do Trial Consultants Do?

Custody trial consultants are the behind the scenes "helpers" to divorce attorneys. Their job is to get the custody case in the most optimal position to present in court. This means the custody trial consultant assists the custody trial attorney in identifying the key issues to present, locating and researching custody experts, preparing witnesses for testimony, assisting with deposition and cross examination questions, creating trial exhibits and assisting with jury selection, when needed. The assistance that custody trial consultants provide raises the trial presentation to another level. This is mainly because on their own, custody trial attorneys don't have the time, skill or resources to do what custody trial consultants do. Read more.
