What documents or information do I need to bring with me at the time of my initial conference regarding Divorce or Separation?

While it certainly is possible that all documentation and information that is needed to evaluate and prosecute a divorce case or negotiating a separation agreement can be collected as the case progresses, it is of great benefit if you can bring with you copies of your most recent tax return, copies of both parties most recent pay stubs, most recent statements relative to any financial assets held by the parties (bank statements, quarterly investment statements, pension, 401(k) retirement state), copies of deeds to real estate owned by the parties, most recent statements for debts (mortgage statements, credit card statements, my credit statements) and any other documentation I will help determine the assets and debts in existence and the values and balances of those assets, respect.
