Hi tt180,

After many replies about sitting on your proposals and passing everything you send by a lawyer, you're finally e-mailing, but still trying out doing so the same day and without letting your attorney review it first?

Your divorce attorney is an important choice. If you don't trust yours turn to friends or Yelp to find one who's well-reviewed. You will be at a distinct disadvantage if you have to rely on "Google Law" to get you through this.

My attorney rarely goes with THE <service> my XW wants. Propose 3 options and let her pick, or let her propose 3 options and you pick. Sounds like your wife is lawyering up. Yes, they'll ground her expectations and maximize her results.
