WHAT ABOUT
INDEPENDENT LEGAL ADVICE? (ILA)
Both parties need their own independent lawyer to protect their interests.
Divorce and Family law can be tricky. A lawyer can help you understand your rights and responsibilities toward your children and your partner, and the rules your agreement has to follow to make it legal.
Keep in mind that both parties should each get independent legal advice. Each party must have their own lawyer provide independent legal advice. The lawyer will give you an ILA letter to prove you got the necessary legal opinion and legal advice.
If not, the agreement could be overturned if disputed later on. Each lawyer providing Independent legal advice will provide a letter certifying that they have done so which the courts will accept.
