The one thing my attny told me that really stuck with me is there is ALWAYS only ONE first time.
Now you never have to have that "first" meeting with the attny again. You did it and you made it through. Sometimes the first ones are the hardest as the unknown factor can be terribly frightening.
Each time my attny and I got something done he would look at me, smile and say "first and last time, you did it".
The beauty of facing a scary situation is there only has to be one first time. Your first time is now past you.
If I ever do work in a family law firm in some capacity that will be my main goal. To make whoever walks in the door feel safe, heard, comfortable and not terrified. It made so much difference for me.
