First of all, I am sorry you are having to deal with this....
Secondly.....I think you need to find a way to relax a little, and allow yourself to breathe.
This part of it sukcs, yet we must find a way to be consistent in our own actions through this.
I will tell you that, if you listen to HER lawyer right now, you will drive yourself off of a cliff before your court date.
Crimson, HER lawyer works for HER, not you. He is out to get every penny that she "deserves".
I mean, how could she NOT get that...right ?
She "suffered" for years , and now she is entitled......
Bullschidt....
Is her Lawyer contacting you directly ?
Although her Lawyer knows the law, he is NOT the law. And he can ask for a 1957 Buick Station wagon if he wants.....Doesn't mean he is gonna get it.
What is your Lawyer saying about this ?
I sat my Lawyer down at our first meaning, and I CLEARLY laid out what I wanted, what I would negotiate on , and what was firm for me. I told her that 50% custody was non-negotiable for me , and if she could not deliver that, then I would find someone else to represent me.
Me ex asked for:
House Full Custody ( including around $1200 per month support) Alimony Me paying her legal fees Her van
What the reality ended up being.....
Well, I hope she likes her van....
Don't become a victim to her Lawyer...
He is YOUR son too, and you have every right to be with him as much as she....
DOCUMENT EVERYTHING that you do for him. Every penny that you spend, every second that he is with you, every second that she denies him to you.....EVERYTHING.
If it isn't written and documented, it didn't happen.
And please don't misunderstand me either. You don't have to be an A$$ throughout this.
Do what is fair, and do what is just, because that is what needs to happen. Not because you are trying to "punish" her in any way.
The legal side of this is a business transaction. Please make decisions in your head, and not with your heart. Your Wife is acting from emotion, there is no need for BOTH of you to.
Keep your chin up Crimson. And remember...
Everytime her Lawyer hits you with a load of BS, hit them back with a dose of reality.
