Types of Attorneys

How do I find a good divorce attorney?

Welcome to the Attorney edition of “Doing Divorce Differently.”

My name is Steven Leskin. I am a divorce attorney in Portland Oregon. I have been practicing in Oregon since 1992.

In the divorce attorney realm, I have noticed that there are three kinds of attorneys. There are the social workers, the sharks and the pragmatists. Social workers want to make everything right for everyone. Sharks are highly aggressive and leave no stone and fight for you on every issue. Pragmatists want to “get it done.” If two social workers are on a case, they will talk everything to death and there will not be any money left. If two sharks are on the case, they will devour everything, and there will not be any money left. If there are two pragmatists are on your case, you got very lucky.
