PD -

You could always consider buying her half out of the Expedition.

This is my lawyer (and was my cousin's). He is located downtown in the building next to the library. He has been practicing family law in Portland going back to the 1970's so he has dealt with it all.

If your W is reasonable, you both could save considerable money by using this excellent mediator who is also downtown.

If your marriage ends up going to a divorce, she can do all of the legal paperwork. With kids and assets like a house, it is best to avoid a "do it yourself" kit for divorce - too easy for mistakes to be made.

You might also want to look into legal seperation if you think there is a chance she may change her mind in the future.
