Hire their own lawyer.
Depends on what kind of case you have against them. Consult with a criminal lawyer or Intellectual Property lawyer to see if you even have a case.
I don't think you can really "win" a divorce. You can get better or worse terms, which depends partially on how good your lawyer is and how good your soon-to-be-ex-spouse's lawyer is.
That depends on which country we're talking about. In some countries, a lawyer will be assigned to the defendant.
yeah you need to have a lawyer to fight you case and stop the orders granted against you in the lower court.
It really depends on what your case is. If you feel that you have been wrongly fired or mistreated because of your race or age, and you have proof, then you might consider hiring a lawyer. Usually, a lawyer will consult with you (for a fee) to determine if you even have a case to argue in front of a judge and jury. If there is no proof, however, it could be difficult to ultimately pursue. It depends on what your case is and what evidence you have. Before investing in a lawyer, you need to take a close look at what evidence you have against your employer to support your case. If you don't have anything, a lawyer is not even going to pursue your case, but you will have to pay him or her for the consultation.
This could well be a conflict of interest. Your (current) lawyer can file a complaint.
For a fee, and if you have a reasonable case, most lawyers will take on this case.
There are a wide variety of circumstances in which a lawyer can prove a case of negligence against a nursing home. Evidence in these types of cases typically involve a video or audio recording of some kind demonstrating the accused negligence.
A spouse cannot be forced to testify against the other regardless of the issue. However, not doing so might jeopardize the prosecutor's case against the individual who is facing the charges.
You should discuss that with your lawyer. If she asks for your spouse's phone number and you have doubts then ask her why she would need it.
