35. Tinder for Divorce Attorneys with Max Leinoff; How to Find the Right Divorce Lawyer

This week we're talking about how to find the right divorce lawyer.  It's like Tinder for Attorneys!

To break it all down, we have Max Leinoff on the pod. Max is a family law attorney in Miami, Florida with Leinoff and Lemos, P.A. His firm was voted one of the Best Law Firms by U.S. News and World Report for 2021 and 2022.

Max answers:

• What three things you must hear from your divorce attorney
• What should you do if your divorce lawyer disagrees with you?
• The importance of expressing your goals honestly with your divorce lawyer
• Who will you be working for when you hire an attorney? Is it a bad sign if they have other associates helping you?
• What questions should you ask divorce lawyers before deciding who to hire? These may surprise you.
• What is a no fault state when it comes to divorce?
• How can you work with your divorce attorney to move things along swiftly and smoothly?

Also, Max shouts out his lovely wife, Katy, who is an incredibly talented, professional artist who has worked with Vans and was recenly featured on the Ralph Lauren website. You can see Katy's work on instagram @katyilana. We checked her out and now we're obsessed with her, too!

We had so much fun with Max, we made him participate in Spin the Wheel, Andrea's favorite segment (Morgan hates it). What embarrassing thing will Max have to do? Stay to the end to find out.

 

Don't missed our OBSESSED segment: This week, Morgan is obsessed with Portillos. We ordered Portillos during the photoshoot for this season, because Morgan and Andrea love nothing more than a great cheeseburger. The photographer kept shooting because watching the us chow on Portillos in fancy dresses was too good to miss. If you're not from Chicago, you may not know how amazing Portillos is. They are iconic. They're best known for hot dogs, burgers and Italian beef (and cheese fries and chocolate cake shakes).  If you're not in Chicago, you can have their food shipped to your door. Life-changing. We're not affiliated (yet)....we're just obsessed.
