Share the good things, and let others know who they can trust.

Due to the fact we handle quite a few military family court cases, I have subscribed to the online military.com newsletter so I frequently get updates about major things happening within the different branches of the military, all over the world.

Today, I received an article entitled "Army Spouse Shares Tips for Deployment." The spouse of a military member who has been deployed half a dozen times was sharing tips with other families about what she does to prepare. For example, start early! One tip I found specifically important was that she asked her military friends to provide her with a list of plumbers, electricians, handy men, etc. that had been reasonably priced and trustworthy. As a mother and Wife whose husband handles most of such things, I thought this was brilliant! The comments on the article were from spouses that expressed hearing these things helped them feel like they were less alone, going through a scary situation. Knowing who you can trust and count on to do the job right is critical to making tough times less difficult.

I would like to encourage people to pass along their good experiences to others that they have had with their lawyer. People often rush to spread the word about a lawyer they did not like or thought did not do a good job because that is what people expect to hear about lawyers. They forget to share when their lawyer did a great job, or helped them through a difficult time. This has more to do with human nature and privacy than much else, but I would venture to guess that most people would appreciate knowing who they can trust and that someone else had a good experience when it comes to their personal business.

So, if you have a lawyer that you count on and that gets the job done for you, let other people know!
