I have not read your sitch so I don't know the m issues.
But I hope you will consider reading, with a ruler, LINE BY LINE, the agreement you signed and or are thinking of signing. The fact that you don't know what default means (and she claims not to know what the response timeline is, bothers me).
Know the agreement, inside and out. Understand every sentence and then imagine if things go wrong
or change
AND ASK...how will that clause be affected?
Yes it's tedious to do, but it's crucial. Besides you ought to KNOW it.
Frankly, it ought to be done for EVERY single legal document you sign, including real estate deals and your contracts, etc and I'm so surprised at the number of "normal" people who don't! No wonder we L's get to charge so much...(sorry)
I do wish you well.
And when it comes to custody of the kids, think of them first, yourself second, and then your wife. You have to do this b/c the kids do come first and YOU are second
b/c she's putting herself ahead of you and someone, like YOU, ought to put you before her. If not you, then who?
Good luck and I'm sorry you are here.
If you want, you can post your wife's suggested agreement, in your own words OR words you don't understand,
to see what others think. Not for "legal" advice, per se,
but for input into what others think is fair or worth fighting for.
