Here's an interview sheet with questions that you should be prepared to answer during your case.. You may want to bring the sheet with you when you first meet with a lawyer as it will save them time in interviewing you and otherwise be helpful. (the more time saved the less you pay) And you may want to keep the sheet handy during your divorce to refresh your recollection about matters, and so you can add to it when necessary. The sheet can be printed out using your web browser.
