MLC Maybe?

[Jerri]

I called a couple of attorneys. One is more of a mediator/conciliatory BUT first appointment I can get with her is May 8th.

Second attorney appears to be an absolute shark. Had a telephone consultation, and she already wants to file immediately for divorce on the grounds of cruel and inhumane behavior. Told her all I wanted was some sort of temporary order to protect my financial position and maybe see about filing for separation. She didn't think, given my situation, that that was possible.

I'm very uneasy about going straight for the jugular. I still love my H and am hoping that eventually he'll come back. Can't see that happening if I immediately go for the kill. I'm leaning towards cancelling the appointment with the shark and waiting for 8th May.

Just heard from my son and he has paychecks for me - so for the moment the money is still coming in.

Is waiting for what is hopefully a less confrontational attorney a good idea? I know, I'm the only one that can answer that but otoh I would like some input.
