Can my spouse and I use the same divorce lawyer?

Posted by Abigail Roy | Jul 21, 2026 | 0 Comments

No. An attorney may represent only one spouse in a divorce because the parties' interests may differ, even when they agree on every issue. If one attorney prepares the settlement documents, that attorney represents only one party and cannot provide legal advice to the other. The unrepresented spouse may choose to retain independent counsel to review the agreement before it is signed.
