How to use this resource

Keep this worksheet private. Use short labels rather than sensitive details, and do not put confidential communications, Social Security numbers, account numbers, children's private information, abuse details, evidence, passwords, or addresses that must remain private in a marketplace request. Record county or existing case information only if already known. Use the official Arkansas links as starting points; ask an Arkansas attorney or appropriate court staff to confirm the court, forms, service, process, deadlines, fees, and next steps for your situation.

Open the PDF in a form-capable viewer, save a copy, then fill it in. Reopen your saved copy to check your answers. You can also print the blank pages and write by hand. Your answers are not submitted to PickYourPro.ai.

• Open the Arkansas Judiciary Court Forms page and record only relevant page or form titles; do not choose or interpret a form from this worksheet.

Questions to ask an Arkansas divorce attorney

1. Based on a private review of my facts, what issues should be identified first, and what information do you need before advising me?
2. What work would your representation include or exclude, and who on your team would handle each part?
3. How should I securely provide court papers, financial records, communications, and other sensitive information?
4. How do you communicate, handle urgent questions, coordinate with staff or other professionals, and document decisions?
5. Which Arkansas court or official information should I verify, and how will you confirm current forms, service, timing, fees, procedure, and location?
6. What is the complete fee structure, which expenses or assumptions could change it, and what will the written engagement agreement cover?

Write down the answers and any exclusions. If two proposals describe different work, clarify the difference before comparing their totals. Leave unanswered points blank until the professional confirms them.
