The company is being stupid about this $2500 relocation money. They are direct depositing the $1250 and will reimburse me for the rest. Crud.
And, when they submitted the employment verification, I noticed the weekly pay didn't add up to $40,000 per year gross. So, I sent an email to try and sort that out.
Met with my attorney this morning. First, he asked me for $3,850 up front to file for divorce. He showed me how he has already gone above and beyond...I've paid $1,300 out of the original $1750 he was charging for the dissolution...but, he shows that the bill is up to $3,000 now. And, in order for a divorce, he is asking for the amount he normally requests...
So, I contacted him, after I digested the information and he said that he would need a good portion of it to get started, but not all of it.
WTF? So, I need to move, start a new job, buy a car to help me get from new home to new office in the middle of winter...Front the money for all of this...
And, to make things more complicated. If I walk away to NY, without filing...I would have to hire a new attorney in NY, but Smokey can keep this jackass he hired.
