Los Angeles, CA family law attorney Robyn Santucci talks about her experience in working as a family law consultant. She points out that she values family law consulting because it allows her to provide support in the way clients need most. In this setting, clients remain in control of the process, choosing whether they want hourly assistance, monthly check-ins, or occasional strategy sessions every few years. Her role is largely behind the scenes, offering guidance and expertise while clients take the lead in direct negotiations with their spouse.

This approach gives clients greater control and flexibility while minimizing the risk of escalating conflict that can sometimes occur when attorneys are directly involved. It also helps clients manage costs effectively, as they can tailor the level of support to match their budget while still benefiting from professional legal insight.
