conflict of interest - divorce lawyers (DE)

[jackietreehorn]

What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? DE

My wife claims that since she has conctacted/interviewed at least the 30 best lawyers in Delaware (small state), so I will not be able to use their services. I found this:

Once you have interviewed with a divorce attorney, that attorney is ethically barred from representing your spouse. Even if you don't hire the attorney. It would be a considered a conflict of interest sense, during your interview you gave the attorney confidential information about your side of the divorce case.

What happens to someone as dumb as me who's married to a twisted person that would contact every lawyer worth hiring in the state?

Truthfully an argument can be made that she purposely was attempting to prohibit your right to counsel by doing this and the court could basically overlook the conflict.
