Well I am in a similar boat with regards to an attorney. I can't afford the fees they are quoting to negotiate our separation agreement. But what he and I settled on was he will charge me the hourly rate and review and direct me as I negotiate directly with my wife. She's in a similar boat as well but the difference is she has the cash flow to pay an attorney more money. For her it just means putting off paying something else. So she at least has the luxury of robbing Peter to pay Paul. But she knows how much that is a bad idea meaning she's motivated to negotiate directly.
Again "this sucks @ss!!"

Took a little look and I see one thing missing from what YOU need in the D if it goes that far.
H pays your L fees after it's all said and done, start with 100% and negotiate down but I would settle for no less than 50%.
That's all I got for now, everything else looks good. Remember what I told you about him really needing this but finding out he didn't really want it after all.
Artist: Keith Urban Album: Love, Pain & the Whole Crazy Thing Title: I Can't Stop Loving You
So you're leaving in the morning on the early train I could say everything's alright And I could pretend to say goodbye
You got your ticket, got your suitcase You got your leaving smile I could say that's the way it goes I could pretend and you won't know That I was lying
Cause I can't stop loving you I can't stop loving you No, I can't stop loving you Though I try
We took a taxi to the station, not a word was said No, I saw you walk across the road It may be the last time I don't know feeling humble Heard a rumble on the railway tracks And when I hear that whistle blow I walked away and you won't know That I was crying
Cause I can't stop loving you No, I can't stop loving you I just can't stop loving you Though I try, I just can't stop loving you No, I can't stop loving you I just can't stop loving you Why do I try, why do I try Yeah

BTW -- the day we're supposed to be in court - he won't even be there....
Call the lawyer, tell him you can't AFFORD to take time off work and if H isn't there, you don't see a need to be there either. Ask him to mail you the documents for your review and you'll get back to him.
(yes I know - this leaves me wide open for "just right now?" :P )
