If negotiations open up, you would also represent me in settlement discussions or, if needed, argue for temporary support at a pendente lite hearing. Please tell me about your recent experience with Virginia’s contested divorce procedures—especially Section 20-107.1 on spousal support—and how you prefer to structure communication and document sharing (e.g., MyCase, Clio, secure email). I will provide all financial statements, pay stubs, and marriage-length evidence once we formalize our engagement.
