# of attorneys matter?

In five years BM2 has had around six attorneys or so, does the court see this? Do they care? I think it shows no one can get along with her! She has plenty of money so it is not really an issue of finding a cheaper one so to speak. Is it something that can look bad? I know courts can judge us (weather it is right or wrong) on how we look, act etc, so what does this say? Every time we go back she has someone new. Is that odd? We have always had the same attorneys for anything we do.

A friends ex kept changing attorneys during their divorce. It was a delaying tactic. The new lawyer would ask for a continuation to get caught up. After the 2nd attorney and 4 years of this crap the judge said no, we are proceeding today and my friend got everything she'd been asking for.

Yes, it can work against them, the judge isn't stupid.
