Questions & Answers
What should clients look for in a lawyer?
Clients should look for a lawyer that they trust and with whom they can communicate well. Especially in family law, which is our main practice area, clients go through difficult times and it is essential that they can communicate their concerns with their attorney and that the attorney is responsive and helpful so that the client remains well-informed and appropriate actions are taken.
What information can you provide in a free phone consultation?
We can provide basic information, including the procedure for filing a case, we can explain jurisdictional criteria and often what burden(s) the potential client may need to prove. However, we cannot dispense legal advice or analyze a case and make a recommendation prior to the potential client retaining our office.
What information do you need in a free phone consultation?
We need the potential client's name, address, phone number and e-mail address, as well as the name(s) of any opposing party/parties. We also need to know if the matter has ever been in court before and what the potential client's main concerns are.
What differentiates you from other lawyers in your community?
Wolf & Shore, LLC is a small firm with a focus on family law. We have staff who are attentive to our clients' needs and we pride ourselves on keeping our clients informed and providing thorough information and answers throughout the duration of the client's matter.
Are you involved in your community?
Yes. Attorney Wolf is the Treasurer for the Dan Orlovsky Foundation and Attorney Shore is an attorney-coach for the West Haven High School mock trial team. Both attorneys are also supporters of the Special Olympics, and active members of the Greater New Haven Chamber of Commerce and Hamden Chamber of Commerce.
