It sounds like you have a good L and I am so glad that he he is not promising the moon. That is a sure sign of some shyster like my dumb-@ss ex hired.
His first L was sane and so ex fired him and hired a so-called "shark". All that did was make him look stupid because ours should have been an unremarkable case. And boy, was he surprised when the judge ruled against him. Even this L terminated his dealings with my h as soon as the gavel was brought down to end our M.
Also, have I told you how much I enjoy reading your journaling about you and your daughter? It really brightens my day to see such a loving dad.
