Divorce costs has always been a worry for any client. Lawyers are equally mindful of costs and thus the duty arises to inform any client the possibility of increasing legal costs if the matter escalates.
Sometimes a client says it is a matter of principle and thus wants to litigate. Sometimes a client is just feeling bitter and wants to escalate the process so as to also financially hurt the other party.
As lawyers, as much as we understand the emotional roller coaster you are going through in the divorce process, we like to keep you in check and to try to manage and guide you through the court proceedings.
