Is It Better to Hire a Local Family Law Attorney?

It is generally considered better to hire a local family attorney than hiring someone from a different state. 

Hiring local ensures that your attorney is licensed to practice in Rhode Island. What's more, they will have a better grasp of the community and may even have a long working relationship with certain family court judges and other family lawyers. This also means they may have some insight into how these other legal professionals operate and handle cases.
