L was very helpful. Highlighted the ignorance of what XW was throwing at me and I have a stronger position than what I thought. Kind18 was spot on on the advice of child custody. I feel I have the knowledge to properly position myself when future conversations arise. My only decision now, is do I push for the settlement now, or wait until it's clear the house is selling? I'm going to sit on that decision for a week to get some breathing room.
This is why I tell LBSs all the time to consult with a lawyer! It was one of the best things I did in my own situation. It is hard to say it words just how beneficial mentally it was to me. But I've yet to hear of a LBS that has done it and regretted it.
