Just received this email form W:

Please let me know if you are available to go to the courthouse with me sometime tomorrow to get the paperwork notarized.

My response:

You can go get it notorized alone. Place in my box and I will do the same. I'll let you know when its ready.

Should I handle this differently?

W's response:

Actually, since the paperwork is for a joint agreement, its only got one spot for the notary.... So we kind of need to do it at the same time.

Do I say no? I'm thinking of getting a L to look at it first. If I tell her I have a L, she will freak.

Let her know that you are not sure that both of you need to be there. Ask her to confirm through legal advice or the courts or the notary...

Because you actually won't be available tomorrow.

And let her initiate negotiate a time in the future which fits your schedule.

You may also want to get a second opinion by yourself because second hand, non legal info isn't always reliable.

That's my opinion... not a suggestion...

[Grmpy_Mnky]

Agreed. Thanks.

Here in Wisconsin W told me.we.both needed to be there, when I got there I asked the notary and was told that we could have done it separately but would have had to use the same notary. Again not legal advice, just the notaries understanding.

This is what I just sent back to W. I tried to be cordial even though I am very frustrated right now.

Please make sure that is the case. If it is indeed true that we must both be there so be it.
Before I sign anything, I want a chance to have a friend take a look at it. So you might as well leave a copy in my box.
