I know none of these things would have been said by him if I had just accepted the divorce on his terms.
I am less sure about this . . . . I think like all bullies they will get as much as they think they can. If you had not asked for more he would likely then have tried to cut what was already offered. I think you are very wise to only deal through lawyers, - if they know tht what they write is being read by a third party they quickly become less abusive
