My attorney is offering counter - $800, when her attorney wants me to pay the mortgage at $1300. My lawyer is saying based on what I W2's that I should be able to pay close to $1300 and a judge would probably see that - I can't. Not with my new rent, etc. But, that's what state laws dictate.

So, since everything is negotiable, if ww would agree to work with me, that's a better shot than taking it to a judge to decide, who would prob decide in her favor.

So my lawyer told me that being open and transparent with my ww and letting her know what we're proposing and why could help her agree to it, vs her feeling I'm lowballing her with everything just between lawyers.

So much for just leaving it up to attorneys and going dark. How can I do both?
