The L will be highly irritated and will ask for more money. I have a suspicion that's what happened to my H and why I haven't heard from him - he can't afford to retain him so he's stuck.
I hope you are right about this for my sitch also!! It would also be wonderful to have a L tell my H what's-what...and what the consequences of his decisions will very likely be!!
I think all time spent between H and his L so far has been hourly...and not much time, I figure.
I hope you are right that lawyers raise their fees when they find out it will be more of a battle.
The papers I was served with were simply stating we've been apart for so long, let's just make it legal!! BS!!!
I'm going running...3.5 miles today.
