[quote=CWarrior]Trust me I will do nothing, sign nothing without my atty. But, what he is wanting settled seriously benefits me greatly.
If your attorney believes this settlement is better than the law entitles you to, that's wonderful!
If this is only better than your ex convinced you you're entitled to (his belief vs. the law's belief on shared monies), or ties up your potential liquidity into his home, slow down. I only put those caveats in there to help you consider other angles. I suspect your attorney will give you a good rundown if you ask. My attorney usually needs a couple of days to assess a written offer. Good luck and go KitCat!
I absolutely will not accept anything my atty hasn't reviewed but yes... this is completely in my favor. It comes down to splitting retirement accts at this point. He has given me a settlement on everything else - it needs to be in writing so he doesn't get angry and change his mind.
For example- when he found out I'm going to Mexico in September he became resentful he was paying for S18 car and is unable to take a vacation and can't afford a new vehicle or to get his fixed...
Of course the snarky me (let's face it we all have a snarky side) was like... well... you wanted the simple life. You want those sweet vacations we took you need to hook up with a woman with a higher earning potential... LMAO. I know not nice but I think going there with humor helps me move forward.
