A family court trial is much like what people see on television courtroom dramas, except there is no jury. There are opening statements, witnesses, exhibits, cross examination, objections, and closing statements. But before that can occur, the lawyer must review the case, develop a theory of the case, gather witnesses and exhibits, and develop questions and write opening and closing statements. The process by which the gathering or "discovering" of evidence occurs is called "discovery." During this phase, your lawyer will send questions to the other side "interrogatories," and demands for documents "request for production of documents." Your lawyer may also send Request for Admissions and subpoena both people and records.
