12 Things Your Lawyer Needs to Know Before Representing You | South Carolina Family Law

In this episode, attorney John Henderson from HH Law asked two of the firm’s family law paralegals to right down the most important information lawyers need from their clients. Too often clients withhold details that could make or break their case. John explains why being open and honest with your lawyer is essential.

Topics include:

● Why lawyers need to know about past drug or alcohol use

● The importance of disclosing any damaging evidence like videos or recordings

● How open child protective services cases affect family law cases

● Why honesty about adultery, past arrests, and property ownership matters

● The need to share employment changes, upcoming hearings, and custody goals

● Why details about all your children, even from past relationships, are critical

If you are facing family law issues, this video will help you understand what your attorney must know to protect your best interests.
