RTL, I know you are upset about the deposition, but you have paid your L a great deal of money, allow him to do his job and try not interfere. He knows how you feel and if he is good he will respect that. While your W will of course be furious , it just may be the wake up call she needs. To this point it sounds like she thinks she is in control and all will go her way. After this she may have a more realistic idea of what divorce really is like. If nothing else it will help her focus on figuring out of this is what she really wants for her life. Deep down , if she is intelligent, she knows you are just doing this in reaction to her claims. On the hand if she is hell bent on destruction than you will need the deposition to get any kind of fair settlement. I think it is wonderful that you thought of her mother on Sunday. You did the right thing no matter what everyone around you is doing. While your w may claim you were a terrible husband, she certainly can never claim that you were anything but honorable during these proceedings. You really know how to take the high road!
