Advice Needed

I had an appointment with my L thinking that all I had to do was sign the docs and the D process would begin. I had spoken with 4 L's and each had a different spin on my sitch and one kind of smarmie so I didn't want work with him.

Anyway, the L that I retained recommended that I have my W file for D...let her do the heavy lifting. He stated that since I did not build a large financial portfolio during the M and my W did that it would be in my favor.

How do I handle this sitch? I do not want a D, but only offered to retain a L and file for a D to protect my assets. My W who wants the D and is more than happy for me to do the heavy lefting and pay the bill will be pi$$ed when I tell her that she should file. How do I tell her and appear confident and decisive?
