I've hired a firm recommended by a lawyer friend I work with.

My W filed a motion for pendente lite relief, alleging that I haven't provided support, consistently refused support, etc. (we've barely been separated for over a month)

I filed a counter-motion requesting the same. Our attorneys are hashing it out. My wife's attorney is telling my attorneys that she has family members willing to testify to bruises, etc. where I've apparently beaten her (didn't happen at all).

Evidence on my side? I've been keeping a journal since this all started, I have copies of text messages where my wife was giving me a grocery list of items to buy, I have a receipt where I purchased those items, I've been paying $141 per month for my wife's health insurance/dental insurance, and I've offered to pay for half of anything regarding our baby should she provide me a receipt.

She has no problem lying, but luckily I'm anal about keeping everything written.
